Genomic selection [ 3] has offered a new paradigm for livestock breeding and has been successfully applied for selection within purebred populations [ 4- 6].
Besides, the importance of imprinting for these traits has also been reported on a polygenic level within purebred pigs by Neugebauer et al. [ 25].
It is interesting to evaluate the potential benefit of GS within purebred lines when the objective is to improve performance of crossbred animals, by using marker effects that are estimated from pure line data.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential benefit of GS within purebred lines, when the objective is to improve performance of crossbred populations at the commercial level and phenotypic information is collected only on purebred animals.

The burden of disease within the purebred dog population has become the focus of discussions on welfare considerations and with regard to the ethics of breeding practices [ 8].
Selection is done within closed purebred lines and is based on a comprehensive phenotyping scheme, both in pure line birds under highly standardized housing conditions, and in crossbred hens under housing conditions that are closer to the production environment of the end product.
