TLDR
Efficient methods for processing genomic data were developed to increase reliability of estimated breeding values and to estimate thousands of marker effects simultaneously, and a blend of first- and second-order Jacobi iteration using 2 separate relaxation factors converged well for allele frequencies and effects.

Whole-Genome Regression and Prediction Methods Applied to Plant and Animal Breeding

TL;DR: An overview of available methods for implementing parametric WGR models is provided, selected topics that emerge in applications are discussed, and a general discussion of lessons learned from simulation and empirical data analysis in the last decade are presented.

A relationship matrix including full pedigree and genomic information

TL;DR: This work proposes a joint distribution of genotyped and ungenotyped genetic values, with a pedigree-genomic relationship matrix H, which is suitable for iteration on data algorithms that multiply a vector times a matrix, such as preconditioned conjugated gradients.

Genomic prediction when some animals are not genotyped

TL;DR: The extension of the method to non-genotyped animals presented in this paper makes it possible to integrate all the genomic, pedigree and phenotype information into a one-step procedure for genomic prediction, and has the potential to become the standard tool for genomic predictions of breeding values in future practical evaluations in pig and cattle breeding.

The Impact of Genetic Architecture on Genome-Wide Evaluation Methods

TL;DR: The relative accuracy of GBLUP and BayesB for a given number of records and heritability are highly dependent on Me, which is a property of the target genome, as well as the architecture of the trait (NQTL).

Prediction of Total Genetic Value Using Genome-Wide Dense Marker Maps

TL;DR: It was concluded that selection on genetic values predicted from markers could substantially increase the rate of genetic gain in animals and plants, especially if combined with reproductive techniques to shorten the generation interval.

Coefficients of Inbreeding and Relationship

TL;DR: The importance of having a coefficient by means of which the degree of inbreeding may be expressed has been brought out by Pearl' in a number of papers published between 1913 and 1917.

Strategy for applying genome-wide selection in dairy cattle.

TL;DR: Genome-wide selection may become a popular tool for genetic improvement in livestock after a strategy that utilizes these advantages was compared with a traditional progeny testing strategy under a typical Canadian-like dairy cattle situation.
