Paul M. VanRaden
- 01 Nov 2008 - 
- Vol. 91, Iss: 11, pp 4414-4423
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.

Non-additive Effects in Genomic Selection

TL;DR: This study presents a review of methods for the incorporation of non-additive genetic effects into genomic selection procedures and their potential applications in the prediction of future performance, mate allocation, crossbreeding, and purebred selection.

Genomic Prediction of Gene Bank Wheat Landraces

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined genomic prediction within 8416 Mexican landrace accessions and 2403 Iranian accessions stored in gene banks and evaluated in separate field trials, including an optimum environment for several traits, and in two separate environments (drought, D and heat, H) for the highly heritable traits, days to heading (DTH), and days to maturity (DTM).

Factors Affecting the Accuracy of Genotype Imputation in Populations from Several Maize Breeding Programs

TL;DR: The objective of this paper was to quantify the accuracy of imputation in a maize (Zea mays L.) data set and explore some of the factors that affect it and the design of an information nucleus that incorporates imputation for the purposes of implementing genomic selection and association mapping in small independent breeding programs.
