Abstract
Genomic-enabled prediction is becoming increasingly important in animal and plant breeding and is also receiving attention in human genetics. Deriving accurate predictions of complex traits requires implementing whole-genome regression (WGR) models where phenotypes are regressed on thousands of markers concurrently. Methods exist that allow implementing these large-p with small-n regressions, and genome-enabled selection (GS) is being implemented in several plant and animal breeding programs. The list of available methods is long, and the relationships between them have not been fully addressed. In this article we provide an overview of available methods for implementing parametric WGR models, discuss selected topics that emerge in applications, and present a general discussion of lessons learned from simulation and empirical data analysis in the last decade.

Genome-wide identification of genes enabling accurate prediction of hybrid performance from parents across environments and populations for gene-based breeding in maize

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors reported genome-wide identification of genes enabling accurate prediction of hybrid offspring complex traits from parents using maize grain yield as the target trait and tested their utility and efficiency for predicting F1 hybrid grain yields from parents, using their expressions, genic SNPs, and number of favorable alleles (NFAs), respectively.

Identification of adapted breeding lines to improve barley hybrids for Spain

TL;DR: In this paper , a set of 140 locally adapted advanced breeding lines, developed in a Spanish public breeding program, were evaluated for their potential to widen the germplasm available for hybrid barley development, and a subset of 24 lines was introduced into three-way hybrid combinations, and tested in a field trial network of four locations and two years.

GbyE: A New Genome Wide Association and Prediction Model based on Genetic by Environmental Interaction

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors constructed a new genotype design model program (GbyE) for genome-wide association and prediction using Kronecker product, which can enhance the statistical power of GWAS and genomic selection by utilizing the interaction effects of multiple environments or traits.

Regression Shrinkage and Selection via the Lasso

TL;DR: A new method for estimation in linear models called the lasso, which minimizes the residual sum of squares subject to the sum of the absolute value of the coefficients being less than a constant, is proposed.

The Elements of Statistical Learning: Data Mining, Inference, and Prediction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the important ideas in these areas in a common conceptual framework, and the emphasis is on concepts rather than mathematics, with a liberal use of color graphics.

Stochastic Relaxation, Gibbs Distributions, and the Bayesian Restoration of Images

TL;DR: The analogy between images and statistical mechanics systems is made and the analogous operation under the posterior distribution yields the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate of the image given the degraded observations, creating a highly parallel ``relaxation'' algorithm for MAP estimation.
