R package pcadapt is a user-friendly R package for performing genome scans for local
adaptation. Here, we present version 4 of pcadapt which substantially improves …

The BGLR-R package implements various types of single-trait shrinkage/variable selection
Bayesian regressions. The package was first released in 2014, since then it has become a …

Genomic prediction uses DNA sequences and phenotypes to predict genetic values. In
homogeneous populations, theory indicates that the accuracy of genomic prediction …

R is widely regarded as unrivalled by other high-level programming languages for its
statistical functions. The popularity of R as a statistical language has led many to overlook its …

As the global demand for seafood increases, research into the genetic basis of traits that can
increase aquaculture production is critical. The eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) is an …

Despite the growing resources and tools for high-throughput characterization and analysis
of genomic information, the discovery of the genetic elements that regulate complex traits …

Heritable genetic variation among free‐living animals or plants is essential for populations to
respond to selection and adapt. It is therefore important to be able to estimate additive …

Abstract Hyperuricemia (serum urate> 6.8 mg/dl) is associated with several cardiometabolic
and renal diseases, such as gout and chronic kidney disease. Previous studies have …

The success of genomic selection (GS) in breeding schemes relies on its ability to provide
accurate predictions of unobserved lines at early stages. Multigeneration data provides …

Background Most genomic prediction applications in animal breeding use genotypes with
tens of thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). However, modern …
