Eigen decomposition expedites longitudinal genome-wide association studies for milk production traits in Chinese Holstein
Abstract Background Pseudo-phenotypes, such as 305-day yields, estimated breeding values or deregressed proofs, are usually used as response variables for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of milk production traits in dairy cattle. Computational inefficiency challenges the direct use of test-da...
