Abstract excerpt
Residual feed intake (RFI) is a measure of the feed efficiency of animals. Previous studies have identified SNPs associated with RFI. The objective of this study was to compare the GBLUP model with the GA-BLUP model including previously identified associated SNPs. The nine associated SNPs were obtained from the genome-wide association study on a discovery population as preselection information. These models were...
