Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In many animal breeding programs, with the increasing number of genotyped animals, estimation of genomic breeding values by the single-step method is becoming limited by excessive computing requirements. A recently proposed algorithm for proven and young animals (APY) is an approximation that reduces computing time drastically by dividing genotyped animals into core and non-core animals, with only...
