Best linear unbiased prediction of genomic breeding values using a trait-specific marker-derived relationship matrix.

Best linear unbiased prediction of genomic breeding values using a trait-specific marker-derived relationship matrix.

With the availability of high density whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism chips, genomic selection has become a promising method to estimate genetic merit with potentially high accuracy for animal, plant and aquaculture species of economic importance. With markers covering the entire genome,...
