Background The increasing availability of whole-genome sequence data is expected to increase the accuracy of genomic prediction. However, results from simulation studies and analysis of real data do not always show an increase in accuracy from sequence data compared to high-density (HD) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chip genotypes. In addition, the sheer number of variants makes analysis of...
Background Sequence data can potentially increase the reliability of genomic predictions, because such data include causative mutations instead of relying on linkage disequilibrium (LD) between causative mutations and prediction variants. However, the location of the causative mutations is not known, and the presence of many variants that are in low LD with the causative mutations may reduce prediction...
