Abstract excerpt
The goal of this study was to assess the feasibility of across-country genomic predictions in Norwegian White Sheep (NWS) and New Zealand Composite (NZC) sheep populations with similar development history. Different training populations were evaluated (i.e., including only NWS or NZC, or combining both populations). Predictions were performed using the actual phenotypes (normalized) and the single-step GBLUP via...
