A BLUP derivation of the multivariate breeder's equation, with an elucidation of errors in BLUP variance estimates, and a prediction method for inbred populations

The multivariate breeder's equation, Lande (1979), was derived from the Price equation Price (1970,1972). Here, I present a derivation based on the BLUP (best linear unbiased predictions) equations in matrix form, first given in summation form by Henderson (1950). The derivation makes use of a...
