Abstract excerpt
In this study, traditional single-trait Bayesian whole-genome regression methods (BayesA, BayesB, and BayesCπ), which treat the scale parameter of the marker variance prior as fixed, were compared to alternative versions (BayesSA, BayesSB, and BayesSCπ) that estimate this parameter from the data using a Gamma prior. Analyses were conducted using a publicly available dataset of 3,534 animals from a commercial PIC...
