Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to compare three methods of genomic prediction: GBLUP, BayesC and BayesGC for genomic prediction of six maternal traits in Landrace sows using a panel of 660 K SNPs. The effects of different priors for the Bayesian methods were also investigated. GBLUP does not take the genetic architecture into account as all SNPs are assumed to have equally sized effects and relies heavily on the...
