As a follow-up to my PhD work, in this article, we showed and explained how 'Genomic models account for genomic preselection by correctly estimating Mendelian sampling terms of preselected animals'. Enjoy reading: https://t.co/LrM0avexzj.
Single-step genomic models are able to evaluate presseleted animals without preselection bias even for scarcely-recorded traits like feed intake. Conclusion of the last research chapter of my PhD thesis now in #JBG. @Breed4Food@WURlivestock@genomic_pred https://t.co/fBUFcBhPBZ
My wife wanted to read what I was typing, and concluded that "this sounds like an incantation". Then I thought of it and realized that these codes actually do 'magic'. Now I am wondering, is it by design or just a coincidence that these codes sound like incantations?π€
