Abstract excerpt
The objective of this study was to estimate accuracies of direct genomic breeding values (DGV) for nationally evaluated traits of 1,081 American (AMH), 100 Argentine (ARH), 75 Canadian (CAH), and 395 Uruguayan (URH) Hereford animals genotyped using the Illumina BovineSNP50 BeadChip. Deregressed EBV (DEBV) were used as observations in a weighted analysis to derive DGV using BayesB and BayesC methods. The AMH...
