Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Although single-step GBLUP (ssGBLUP) is an animal model, SNP effects can be backsolved from genomic estimated breeding values (GEBV). Predicted SNP effects allow to compute indirect prediction (IP) per individual as the sum of the SNP effects multiplied by its gene content, which is helpful when the number of genotyped animals is large, for genotyped animals not in the official evaluations, and when...
