Genomic prediction accuracy for five economically important traits in cashmere goats across single-nucleotide polymorphism densities and methods.

Abstract excerpt

The production and quality improvement of cashmere from Inner Mongolia's cashmere goats face numerous challenges, including high costs associated with measuring cashmere diameter and the low accuracy of cashmere yield measurements. Genetic improvement of the breed relies on traditional breeding methods, resulting in low selection accuracy and slow genetic progress. The high cost of typing using high-density...
