Genomic selection models substantially improve the accuracy of genetic merit predictions for fillet yield and body weight in rainbow trout using a multi-trait model and multi-generation progeny testing
Abstract Background In aquaculture, the proportion of edible meat (FY = fillet yield) is of major economic importance, and breeding animals of superior genetic merit for this trait can improve efficiency and profitability. Achieving genetic gains for fillet yield is possible using a pedigree-based b...
