The genomic prediction of unobserved genetic values or future phenotypes for complex
traits has revolutionized agriculture and human medicine. Fertility traits are undoubtedly …

Background Fertility is among the most important economic traits in dairy cattle. Genomic
prediction for cow fertility has received much attention in the last decade, while bull fertility …

Recent work has suggested that the performance of prediction models for complex traits may
depend on the architecture of the target traits. Here we compared several prediction models …

Background With the availability of next-generation sequencing technologies, genomic
prediction based on whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data is now feasible in animal …

Whole-genome sequence (WGS) data are increasingly being applied into genomic
predictions, offering a higher predictive ability by including causal mutations or single …

Quantitative traits are usually controlled by numerous genomic variants with small individual
effects, and variances associated with those traits are explained in a continuous manner …

Gao et al. propose several approaches to incorporate gene annotation into genomic
prediction and evaluate these new methods on populations..... Today, genomic prediction …
