Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Since the very beginning of genomic selection, researchers investigated methods that improved upon SNP-BLUP (single nucleotide polymorphism best linear unbiased prediction). SNP-BLUP gives equal weight to all SNPs, whereas it is expected that many SNPs are not near causal variants and thus do not have substantial effects. A recent approach to remedy this is to use genome-wide association study (GWAS)...
