Approximating reliabilities of indirect predictions using single nucleotide polymorphism effects from large single-step genomic best linear unbiased predictor evaluations.

Abstract excerpt

Reliability (REL) is a metric used to assess how accurately breeding values are predicted. Calculating theoretical REL requires the prediction error variance from the inverse of the coefficient matrix of the mixed model equations, which is computationally intensive for large populations or complex models. In such cases, REL are approximated. In routine genetic evaluations it is not feasible to evaluate animals...
