Abstract excerpt

An algorithm for estimating variance components (Method R) based on the linear regression coefficient (R) of recent (more accurate) on previous (less accurate) individual genetic predictions is presented. The previous prediction is obtained by analyzing a subsample of the whole data set. First ra...
