Genomic selection for maternal traits in pigs.

Journal of animal science - 1 Dec 2011

Lillehammer M, Meuwissen T H E, Sonesson A K

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to compare alternative designs for implementation of genomic selection to improve maternal traits in pigs, with a conventional breeding scheme and a progeny testing scheme. The comparison was done through stochastic simulation of a pig population. It was assumed that selection was performed based on a trait that could be measured on females after the first litter, with a heritability of...
