Abstract excerpt

In the metafounder approach, the relationship matrix of metafounders, Γ is used to transfer information on relationships between pedigree founders into the numerator relationship matrix A , creating matrix A Γ . Commonly metafounders are defined based on the available information of the animal (e.g., country, sex, breed) similar to unknown parent groups (UPG). This limits the ability of metafounders to correctly...
