Comparing SNP panels and statistical methods for estimating genomic breed composition of individual animals in ten cattle breeds

Abstract Background SNPs are informative to estimate genomic breed composition (GBC) of individual animals, but selected SNPs for this purpose were not made available in the commercial bovine SNP chips prior to the present study. The primary objective of the present study was to select five common S...
