Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genomic prediction faces two main statistical problems: multicollinearity and n ≪ p (many fewer observations than predictor variables). Principal component (PC) analysis is a multivariate statistical method that is often used to address these problems. The objective of this study was to compare the performance of PC regression (PCR) for genomic prediction with that of a commonly used REML model with a...
