Improving the Accuracy of Whole Genome Prediction for Complex Traits Using the Results of Genome Wide Association Studies

TL;DR: This is the first study incorporating public GWAS results formally into the standard GBLUP model and it is thought that the BLUP|GA approach deserves further investigations in animal breeding, plant breeding as well as human genetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accuracy of Whole-Genome Prediction Using a Genetic Architecture-Enhanced Variance-Covariance Matrix

TL;DR: Predictive ability and difference of accuracies for BLUP|GA and GBLUP significantly correlate with the distance between the T and G matrices, which is mainly due to the increased similarity between the trait-specific relationship matrix (T matrix) and the genetic relationship matrix at unobserved causal loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic prediction with epistasis models: on the marker-coding-dependent performance of the extended GBLUP and properties of the categorical epistasis model (CE)

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the coding-dependent performance of EGBLUP offers the possibility to incorporate prior experimental information into the prediction method by adapting the coding to already available phenotypic records on other traits, and CE can be a valuable alternative since it does not possess the undesired theoretical properties of E GBLUP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrating Gene Expression Data Into Genomic Prediction.

TL;DR: The utility of transcriptome data for phenotype prediction was tested with 185 inbred lines of Drosophila melanogaster for nine traits in two sexes and the results suggest that accounting for transcriptomeData has the potential to improve genomic predictions if transcriptome Data can be included on a larger scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

Imputation from SNP chip to sequence: a case study in a Chinese indigenous chicken population

TL;DR: This work comprehensively investigated the impacts of several key factors on genotype imputation and found that with a fixed sequencing cost, the optimal imputation enhance the performance of WGP and GWAS.
