Multiple-trait QTL mapping and genomic prediction for wool traits in sheep

Abstract Background The application of genomic selection to sheep breeding could lead to substantial increases in profitability of wool production due to the availability of accurate breeding values from single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data. Several key traits determine the value of wool and in...
