Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This paper highlights the relationships between economic weights, genetic progress, and phenotypic progress in genomic breeding programs that aim at generating genetic progress in complex, i.e., multi-trait, breeding objectives via a combination of estimated breeding values for different trait complexes. RESULTS: Based on classical selection index theory in combination with quantitative genetic...
