Abstract excerpt
Selective genotyping of crossbred (CB) animals to include in traditionally purebred (PB) dominated genetic evaluations has been shown to provide an increase in the response to selection for CB performance. However, the inclusion of phenotypes from selectively genotyped CB animals, without the phenotypes of their non-genotyped cohorts, could cause bias in estimated variance components (VC) and subsequent estimated...
