 Genome-enabled prediction of breeding values for feedlot average daily weight gain in nelore cattle. Author(s): SOMAVILLA, A. L.; REGITANO, L. C. de A.; ROSA, G. J. M.; MOKRY, F. B.; MUDADU, M. de A.; TIZIOTO, P. C.; OLIVEIRA, P. S. N. de; SOUZA, M. M. de; COUTINHO, L. L.; MUNARI, D. P. Nelore is the most economically important cattle breed in Brazil, and the use of genetically improved animals has contributed to increase beef production efficiency. The Brazilian beef feedlot industr... ... |
 Author(s): AZEVEDO, C. F.; NASCIMENTO, M.; SILVA, F. F.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; LOPES, P. S.; GUIMARÃES, S. E. F.; GLÓRIA, L. S. A significant contribution of molecular genetics is the direct use of DNA information to identify genetically superior individuals. With this approach, genome-wide selection (GWS) can be used for this... ... |
 Increasing cassava root yield: additive-dominant genetic models for selection of parents and clones. Author(s): ANDRADE, L. R. B. de; SOUSA, M. B. e; WOLFE, M.; JANNINK, J. L.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; AZEVEDO, C. F.; OLIVEIRA, E. J. de Genomic selection has been promising in situations where phenotypic assessments are expensive, laborious, and/or inefficient. This work evaluated the efficiency of genomic prediction methods combined... ... |
 Author(s): FERREIRA FILHO, D.; BUENO FILHO, J. S. de S.; REGITANO, L. C. de A.; ALENCAR, M. M. de; ALVES, R. R.; BAENA, M. M.; MEIRELLES, S. L. C. Analysis of a large number of markers is crucial in both genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genome-wide selection (GWS). However there are two methodological issues that restrict statistical a... ... |
 Author(s): RESENDE, R. M. S.; MARTINS, F. B.; VILELA, M. de M.; MORAES, A. C. L.; FERREIRA, R. C. U.; DÉO, T. G.; MOREIRA, F. A.; PASTINA, M. M.; NODA, R. W.; SOUZA, A. P. Although Brazil is the major producer and exporter of beef in the world, the rangelands are cultivated with varieties obtained by selection on germplasm and conventional breeding. Only lately genomic... ... |
 Author(s): SANTOS, A. dos; RODRIGUES, E. V.; LAVIOLA, B. G.; TEODORO, L. P. R.; TEODORO, P. E.; BHERING, L. L. Abstract: Genome-wide selection (GWS) has been becoming an essential tool in the genetic breeding of long-life species, as it increases the gain per time unit. This study had a hypothesis that GWS is... ... |
 Author(s): COLE, J. B.; SILVA, M. V. G. B. Abstract Genomic selection has been a valuable tool for increasing the rate of genetic improvement in purebred dairy cattle populations. However, there also are many large populations of crossbred dai... ... |
 Author(s): AZEVEDO, C. F.; FERRÃO, L. F. V.; BENEVENUTO, J.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; NASCIMENTO, M.; NASCIMENTO, A. C. C.; MUNOZ, P. R. An approach for handling visual scores with potential errors and subjectivity in scores was evaluated in simulated and blueberry recurrent selection breeding schemes to assist breeders in their decisi... ... |
 Author(s): MÉSZÁROS, G.; BOISON, S. A.; O'BRIEN, A. M. P.; FERENCAKOVIC, M.; CURIK, I.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.; UTSONOMIYA, Y. T.; GARCIA, J. F.; SÖLKNER, J. Analysis of genomic data is increasingly becoming part of the livestock industry. Therefore, the routine collection of genomic information would be an invaluable resource for effective management of b... ... |
 Author(s): OLIVEIRA, G. F.; NASCIMENTO, A. C. C.; NASCIMENTO, M.; SANT'ANNA, I. de C.; ROMERO, J. V.; AZEVEDO, C. F.; BHERING, L. L.; CAIXETA, E. T. This study assessed the efficiency of Genomic selection (GS) or genome‐wide selection (GWS), based on Regularized Quantile Regression (RQR), in the selection of genotypes to breed autogamous pla... ... |
