Multivariate genetic evaluation in swine combining data from different testing schemes.

Journal of animal science - 1 Nov 1990

A computational strategy is presented that allows rapid implementation of genetic evaluations using multivariate mixed models. Data generated in different testing programs such as field tests of boars and gilts, litter recording schemes and station tests of sibs may be combined to provide an esti...
