Abstract excerpt
The genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) method has been widely used in routine genomic evaluation as it assumes a common variance for all single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). However, this is unlikely in the case of traits influenced by major SNP. Hence, the present study aimed to improve the accuracy of GBLUP by using the weighted GBLUP (WGBLUP), which gives more weight to important markers for...
