Open AccessEffects of alleles in crossbred pigs estimated for genomic prediction depend on their breed-of-origin
This study investigated if the allele effect of a given single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) for crossbred performance in pigs estimated in a genomic prediction model differs depending on its breed-of-origin, ...

Open AccessCorrection to: Genomic evaluation for a three-way crossbreeding system considering breed-of-origin of alleles
After publication of our article [1], we found a typo in the formula to build the genomic relationship matrix using allele frequencies across all genotyped pigs (matrix) and the genomic relationship matrix usi...

Open AccessGenomic evaluation for a three-way crossbreeding system considering breed-of-origin of alleles
Genomic prediction of purebred animals for crossbred performance can be based on a model that estimates effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in purebreds on crossbred performance. For crossbred pe...

Open AccessAssigning breed origin to alleles in crossbred animals
For some species, animal production systems are based on the use of crossbreeding to take advantage of the increased performance of crossbred compared to purebred animals. Effects of single nucleotide polymorp...

Open AccessEmpirical determination of breed-of-origin of alleles in three-breed cross pigs
Although breeding programs for pigs and poultry aim at improving crossbred performance, they mainly use training populations that consist of purebred animals. For some traits, e.g. residual feed intake, the ge...

Open AccessGenome-wide association study using deregressed breeding values for cryptorchidism and scrotal/inguinal hernia in two pig lines
Cryptorchidism and scrotal/inguinal hernia are the most frequent congenital defects in pigs. Identification of genomic regions that control these congenital defects is of great interest to breeding programs, b...
