Estimation of Variance Components in Finite Polygenic Models and Complex Pedigrees
Various models of the genetic architecture of quantitative traits have been considered to provide the basis for increased genetic progress. The finite polygenic model (FPM), which contains a finite number of unlinked polygenic loci, is proposed as an improvement to the infinitesimal model (IM) for...
