Effects of selection index coefficients that ignore reliability on economic weights and selection responses during practical selection

Effects of selection index coefficients that ignore reliability on economic weights and selection responses during practical selection

Objective In practical breeding, selection is often performed by ignoring the accuracy of evaluations and applying economic weights directly to the selection index coefficients of genetically standardized traits. The denominator of the standardized component trait of estimated genetic evaluations in...
