Estimating quantitative genetic parameters using sibships reconstructed from marker data.
Previous techniques for estimating quantitative genetic parameters, such as heritability in populations where exact relationships are unknown but are instead inferred from marker genotypes, have used data from individuals on a pairwise level only. At this level, families are weighted according to the number of pairs within which each family appears, hence by size rather than information content...
متن کاملEstimating Genetic Parameters of Body Weight Traits in Kourdi Sheep
For estimating genetic parameters for body weight traits in Kourdi sheep data were collected from 1996 to 2013 in Kourdi Breeding Station in Northern Khorasan province of Iran. Studied traits were birth weight (BW), weaning weight (WW), six-month weight (6MW), nine-month weight (9MW) and yearling weight (YW). The fixed effects in the model were lambing year, sex, type of birth and age of dam. (...
متن کاملEstimation of quantitative genetic parameters.
This paper gives a short review of the development of genetic parameter estimation over the last 40 years. This shows the development of more statistically and computationally efficient methods that allow the fitting of more biologically appropriate models. Methods have evolved from direct methods based on covariances between relatives to methods based on individual animal models. Maximum-likel...
متن کاملEstimating quantitative genetic parameters in wild populations: a comparison of pedigree and genomic approaches
The estimation of quantitative genetic parameters in wild populations is generally limited by the accuracy and completeness of the available pedigree information. Using relatedness at genomewide markers can potentially remove this limitation and lead to less biased and more precise estimates. We estimated heritability, maternal genetic effects and genetic correlations for body size traits in an...
متن کاملEstimating the genetic architecture of quantitative traits.
Understanding and estimating the structure and parameters associated with the genetic architecture of quantitative traits is a major research focus in quantitative genetics. With the availability of a well-saturated genetic map of molecular markers, it is possible to identify a major part of the structure of the genetic architecture of quantitative traits and to estimate the associated paramete...
