Abstract excerpt
The development of statistical methods aiming to improve the accuracy of genomic predictions is of utmost value for dairy goat breeding programs. In this context, the use of haplotypes, instead of individual SNP, could improve the accuracy of genomic predictions by better capturing the effect of causal variants, instead of relying solely on linkage disequilibrium with individual SNP. Haplotypes can be included in...
