Trajectories of genetic correlations in populations under selection: from theory to a case-study

2025-03-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Breeding programs select for multiple commercial traits, aiming to achieve genetic progress for all. Often, selection is based on a selection index, i . e . a linear combination of traits with weights defined by, among other information, the genetic correlation between traits. These correlations are typically estimated as a static parameter, and assumed equal to all individuals and generatio...
