Estimation of prediction error variances via Monte Carlo sampling methods using different formulations of the prediction error variance

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Calculation of the exact prediction error variance covariance matrix is often computationally too demanding, which limits its application in REML algorithms, the calculation of accuracies of estimated breeding values and the control of variance of response to sel...
