Prediction of genetic merit for growth rate in pigs using animal models with indirect genetic effects and genomic information.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 7 Oct 2020

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Several studies have found that the growth rate of a pig is influenced by the genetics of the group members (indirect genetic effects). Accounting for these indirect genetic effects in a selection program may increase genetic progress for growth rate. However, indirect genetic effects are small and difficult to predict accurately. Genomic information may increase the ability to predict indirect...
