Do you want to know the impact of different selection strategies in breeding on allele frequency change? And the impact of selection on the fixation of favorable and unfavorable alleles? Then check our new preprint! @mariocalus@ZulmaVitezica#wur_abg https://t.co/Ivd9XiCxKF
Very proud with the publication of this paper! It describes the long-term effects of genomic versus traditional selection on genetic variance, gain and architecture, and how it is affected by non-additive effects. #wur_abg@mariocalus@ZulmaVitezica https://t.co/WkEybdI8SP

Are you working on genetics of multiple species or breeds? Join #WCGALP2022 (https://t.co/WnSyDwFzoj) and submit an abstract to the session ‘Across-species and breed genetics’ that will be chaired by Ben Hayes, Irene van den Berg and myself.
Looking forward to your submissions!
Is genomic selection able to maintain long-term genetic gain and genetic variance? And what are the effects of genomic selection on genetic architecture of traits? If you’re getting curious, then check our new preprint #wur_abg@mariocalus@ZulmaVitezica https://t.co/8ouzDCtzY5
Very happy with the publication of our paper on optimizing genomic reference populations to improve crossbred performance in GSE (https://t.co/4QhtSPuwfK). With @mariocalus and Piter Bijma. @Breed4Food#wur_abg
Happy to share our work just out in GSE. We developed a prediction equation for the accuracy of multi-population, multi-GRMs (MPMG) genomic prediction model. Have a good read! @rfveerkamp @bouwman_aniek @YWientjes@CRV4all@Breed4Food#wur_abg@NWO_TTW https://t.co/pizNOMNk8G
Verdorie, gaat niet goed in ons dorpske. Steeds meer meldingen van ook familie en vrienden met besmetting. Neem dit serieus mensen! #corona

Yesterday @pascalduenk2 successfully defended his PhD thesis. #wur_abg@WURanimal@Breed4Food@NWO_TTW He made a very good thesis with a very nice cover. It was a joy to supervise him together with Piter Bijma & @YWientjes His thesis is freely available: https://t.co/NizvY24CEp
