Sentence examples for simulated breeding from inspiring English sources

We simulated breeding schemes with restrictions that were inspired by, but not unique, to pig breeding.

Here, we investigate the relative merits of the seven methods for estimating predictive accuracy using simulated breeding values.

The program simulated breeding values and new records based on this existing structure and knowledge on the QTL used in MAS (variance and frequency).

QTL and their effects were in turn used to compute true (simulated) breeding values to simulate complex trait phenotypes with a heritability of 0.25.

The accuracies of the GEBV from the two methods were recorded, accuracy being defined as the correlation coefficient between the true simulated breeding values and GEBV.

For example, we simulated breeding by 10 random pairs from a potential pool of parents with two equally common alleles in HWE (see for code).

In their study [ 10], Patry and Ducrocq used actual pedigree records and records from the 2008 national type trait evaluations for the Holstein breed in France to simulate breeding values of selection candidates.

In this lesson for grades 9 12 from WGBH, students simulate breeding bunnies to show the impact that genetics can have on the evolution of a population of organisms.

Simulation of populations was carried out in two steps: (1) to create base populations (G0) with a set of genomic data and (2) to simulate breeding schemes derived from these base populations.

In the study of Patry and Ducrocq [ 10], actual data were used to simulate breeding values and mimic genomic pre-selection of the last generation of sires to assess bias in national BLUP evaluations.

The accuracy of genomic prediction was calculated per breed as the correlation between the total genomic breeding values and the simulated true breeding values of all selection candidates of that breed.
