Conventional animal selection and breeding methods were based on the phenotypic
performance of the animals. These methods have limitations, particularly for sex-limited traits …

Humans mostly obtain animal-based proteins through chicken meat and eggs since there
are no societal taboos. The modern chicken is most effective for producing affordable and …

Key message Polypoid crop breeders can balance resources between density and
sequencing depth, dosage information and fewer highly informative SNPs recommended …

Genotyping platforms for breeding programs should be repeatable, reliable, high-
throughput, and cost-effective. In this study, we compared the efficiency of an Affymetrix …

Background Use of genomic information has resulted in an undeniable improvement in
prediction accuracies and an increase in genetic gain in animal and plant genetic selection …

The Angora rabbit, a well-known breed for fiber production, has been undergoing traditional
breeding programs relying mainly on phenotypes. Genomic selection (GS) uses genomic …

This study evaluates the diversity of the so-called 'Moroccan Royal lions' using genealogical
information. Lions are no longer extant in North Africa, but the previous wild population was …

This study was carried out to evaluate the advantage of preselecting SNP markers using
Markov blanket algorithm regarding the accuracy of genomic prediction for carcass and …

This study aimed to identify genomic regions influencing growth traits in Nellore cattle and
evaluate the predictive ability of each trait based on results obtained from single-step …

INDUSCHIP-an Illumina platform based custom made genotyping chip was designed with
45K polymorphic markers for Indian cattle breeds and 8K base SNPs of Illumina Bovine LD …
