Dominance and epistatic genetic variances for litter size in pigs using genomic models

Abstract Background Epistatic genomic relationship matrices for interactions of any-order can be constructed using the Hadamard products of orthogonal additive and dominance genomic relationship matrices and standardization based on the trace of the resulting matrices. Variance components for litter...
