Predictive ability of selected subsets of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a moderately sized dairy cattle population

Several studies have shown that computation of genomic estimated breeding values (GEBV) with accuracies significantly greater than parent average (PA) estimated breeding values (EBVs) requires genotyping of at least several thousand progeny-tested bulls. For all published analyses, GEBV computed fro...
