Including non-additive genetic effects in Bayesian methods for the prediction of genetic values based on genome-wide markers

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Molecular marker information is a common source to draw inferences about the relationship between genetic and phenotypic variation. Genetic effects are often modelled as additively acting marker allele effects. The true mode of biolo...
