Redefining and interpreting genomic relationships of metafounders.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 2 May 2024

Legarra Andres, Bermann Matias, Mei Quanshun, Christensen Ole F

Abstract excerpt

Metafounders are a useful concept to characterize relationships within and across populations, and to help genetic evaluations because they help modelling the means and variances of unknown base population animals. Current definitions of metafounder relationships are sensitive to the choice of reference alleles and have not been compared to their counterparts in population genetics-namely, heterozygosities, FST...
