Genomic prediction and genome-wide association study for dagginess and host internal parasite resistance in New Zealand sheep.

BMC genomics - 17 Nov 2015

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Dagginess (faecal soiling of the perineum region) and host nematode parasite resistance are important animal welfare traits in New Zealand sheep. Genomic prediction (GP) estimates the genetic merit, as a molecular breeding value (mBV), for each trait based on many SNPs. The additional information the mBV provides (as determined by its accuracy) has led to its incorporation into breeding schemes. Some...
