Accuracy of breeding values for production traits in turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) using recursive models with or without genomics
Abstract Background Knowledge about potential functional relationships among traits of interest offers a unique opportunity to understand causal mechanisms and to optimize breeding goals, management practices, and prediction accuracy. In this study, we inferred the phenotypic causal networks among f...
