Measuring connectedness among herds in mixed linear models: From theory to practice in large-sized genetic evaluations

<p>Abstract</p> <p>A procedure to measure connectedness among groups in large-sized genetic evaluations is presented. It consists of two steps: (a) computing coefficients of determination (CD) of comparisons among groups of animals; and (b) building sets of connected groups. The CD...
