Quantitative genetics theory for genomic selection and efficiency of genotypic value prediction in open-pollinated populations

ABSTRACT: Quantitative genetics theory for genomic selection has mainly focused on additive effects. This study presents quantitative genetics theory applied to genomic selection aiming to prove that prediction of genotypic value based on thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) depends o...
