Animal models with group-specific additive genetic variances: extending genetic group models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background The animal model is a key tool in quantitative genetics and has been used extensively to estimate fundamental parameters, such as additive genetic variance or heritability. An implicit assumption of animal ... -
Spatial modelling improves genetic evaluation in smallholder breeding programs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Breeders and geneticists use statistical models to separate genetic and environmental effects on phenotype. A common way to separate these effects is to model a descriptor of an environment, a contemporary group ...
