The value of cows in reference populations for genomic selection of new functional traits.

Animal : an international journal of animal bioscience - 1 Jun 2012

Buch L H, Kargo M, Berg P, Lassen J, Sørensen A C

Abstract excerpt

Today, almost all reference populations consist of progeny tested bulls. However, older progeny tested bulls do not have reliable estimated breeding values (EBV) for new traits. Thus, to be able to select for these new traits, it is necessary to build a reference population. We used a deterministic prediction model to test the hypothesis that the value of cows in reference populations depends on the availability...
