Infrared Predictions Are a Valuable Alternative to Actual Measures of Dry-Cured Ham Weight Loss in the Training of Genome-Enabled Prediction Models

Selection to reduce ham weight losses during dry-curing (WL) requires individual traceability of hams throughout dry-curing, with high phenotyping costs and long generation intervals. Infrared spectroscopy enables cost-effective, high-throughput phenotyping for WL 24 h after slaughter. Direct genomi...
