Abstract excerpt
Many quantitative traits measured in breeding programs are genetically correlated. The genetic correlations between the traits indicate that the measurement of one trait carries information on others. To benefit from this information, multi-trait genomic prediction (MTGP) is preferable to use. However, MTGP is more difficult to implement compared to single-trait genomic prediction (STGP), and even more...
