Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces Regression Methods for Genomic Assisted Prediction of Quantitative Traits
TLDR
It is shown that the statistical specification admits a standard mixed-effects linear model representation, with smoothing parameters treated as variance components, in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces regression.Abstract:
Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces regression procedures for prediction of total genetic value for quantitative traits, which make use of phenotypic and genomic data simultaneously, are discussed from a theoretical perspective. It is argued that a nonparametric treatment may be needed for capturing the multiple and complex interactions potentially arising in whole-genome models, i.e., those based on thousands of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. After a review of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces regression, it is shown that the statistical specification admits a standard mixed-effects linear model representation, with smoothing parameters treated as variance components. Models for capturing different forms of interaction, e.g., chromosome-specific, are presented. Implementations can be carried out using software for likelihood-based or Bayesian inference.read more

Ridge Regression and Other Kernels for Genomic Selection with R Package rrBLUP
TL;DR: A new software package for R called rrBLUP, which is a fast maximum‐likelihood algorithm for mixed models with a single variance component besides the residual error, which allows for efficient prediction with unreplicated training data.

Genomic Selection for Crop Improvement
TL;DR: Genomic selection would substantially accelerate the breeding cycle, enhancing gains per unit time and dramatically change the role of phenotyping, which would then serve to update prediction models and no longer to select lines.

Genomic selection in plant breeding: from theory to practice.
TL;DR: Genome selection (GS) as discussed by the authors uses all marker data as predictors of performance and consequently delivers more accurate predictions, potentially leading to more rapid and lower cost gains from breeding. But these traits are complex and affected by many genes, each with small effect.

TL;DR: Based on GP results, it is speculated how GS in germplasm enhancement programs could accelerate the flow of genes from gene bank accessions to elite lines and recent advances in hyperspectral image technology could be combined with GS and pedigree-assisted breeding.

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.

TL;DR: A generic approach to cancer classification based on gene expression monitoring by DNA microarrays is described and applied to human acute leukemias as a test case and suggests a general strategy for discovering and predicting cancer classes for other types of cancer, independent of previous biological knowledge.
