Abstract excerpt
Estimation of genetic variance in populations under selection involves assumptions on base animals. Base animals are often considered unselected and it also has been proposed to treat selected base animals as fixed. The consequences of assumptions on base animals in the estimation of genetic variance in selected populations are not fully understood. Variance decompositions are introduced for simple designs to...
