Multibreed genomic prediction using multitrait genomic residual maximum likelihood and multitask Bayesian variable selection.

Abstract excerpt

Genomic prediction is applicable to individuals of different breeds. Empirical results to date, however, show limited benefits in using information on multiple breeds in the context of genomic prediction. We investigated a multitask Bayesian model, presented previously by others, implemented in a Bayesian stochastic search variable selection (BSSVS) model. This model allowed for evidence of quantitative trait...
