Impact of reduced marker set estimation of genomic relationship matrices on genomic selection for feed efficiency in Angus cattle
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Molecular estimates of breeding value are expected to increase selection response due to improvements in the accuracy of selection and a reduction in generation interval, particularly for traits that are difficult or expensive to rec...
