Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genomic selection (GS) is a key tool to enhance genetic progress in livestock and poultry breeding, but the effects of differences in linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns between populations and the way reference populations are constructed on the accuracy of genomic prediction (GP) still need to be thoroughly investigated. Therefore, in this study, three beef cattle populations with different genetic...
