Optimal contemporary group structure to maximize genetic progress through genetic evaluation of swine.

Journal of animal science - 1 Sept 1994

Lofgren D L, Stewart T S

Abstract excerpt

Accuracies of sire EPD were calculated for a typical growth trait and a typical maternal trait for alternative contemporary group structures. For a given family size (number of progeny tested for a sire in a contemporary group), accuracy increased as the number of sires increased and as the numbe...
