Authorship: NASCIMENTO, M.; SILVA, F. F. e; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; CRUZ, C. D.; NASCIMENTO, A. C. C.; VIANA, J. M. S.; AZEVEDO, C. F.; BARROSO, L. M. A.

Genomic selection (GS) is a variant of marker-assisted selection, in which genetic markers covering the whole genome predict individual genetic merits for breeding. GS increases the accuracy of breedi... ...

Authorship: BARROSO, L. M. A.; NASCIMENTO, M.; NASCIMENTO, A. C. C.; SILVA, F. F.; SERÃO, N. V. L.; CRUZ, C. D.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; SILVA, F. L.; AZEVEDO, C. F.; LOPES, P. S.; GUIMARÃES, S. E. F.

Background: Genomic growth curves are generally defined only in terms of population mean; an alternative approach that has not yet been exploited in genomic analyses of growth curves is the Quantile R... ...

Authorship: AZEVEDO, C. F.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; SILVA, F. F.; VIANA, J. M. S.; VALENTE, M. S. F.; RESENDE JUNIOR, M. F. R.; OLIVEIRA, E. J. de

ABSTRACT. Genomic selection is the main force driving applied breeding programs and accuracy is the main measure for evaluating its efficiency. The traditional estimator (TE) of experimental accuracy... ...

Authorship: TEIXEIRA, F. R. F.; NASCIMENTO, M.; NASCIMENTO, A. C. C.; SILVA, F. F. e; CRUZ, C. D.; AZEVEDO, C. F.; PAIXÃO, D. M.; BARROSO, L. M. A.; VERARDO, L. L.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; GUIMARÃES, S. E. F.; LOPES, P. S.

The aim of the present study was to propose and evaluate the use of factor analysis (FA) in obtaining latent variables (factors) that represent a set of pig traits simultaneously, for use in genome-wi... ...

Authorship: GOIS, I. B.; BORÉM, A.; CRISTOFANI-YALY, M.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; AZEVEDO, C. F.; BASTIANEL, M.; NOVELLI, V. M.; MACHADO, M. A.

Genome wide selection (GWS) is essential for the genetic improvement of perennial species such as Citrus because of its ability to increase gain per unit time and to enable the efficient selection of... ...

Authorship: SANTOS, V. S.; MARTINS FILHO, S.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; AZEVEDO, C. F.; LOPES, P. S.; GUIMARÃES, S. E. F.; SILVA, F. F.

Age at the time of slaughter is a commonly used trait in animal breeding programs. Since studying this trait involves incomplete observations (censoring), analysis can be performed using survival mode... ...

Authorship: SANTOS, V. S.; MARTINS FILHO, S.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; AZEVEDO, C. F.; LOPES, P. S.; GUIMARAES, S. E. F.; GLORIA, L. S.; SILVA, F. F.

The aim of this study was to compare genomic selection methodologies using a linear mixed model and the Cox survival model. We used data from an F2 population of pigs, in which the response variable w... ...

Authorship: AZEVEDO, C. F.; NASCIMENTO, M.; SILVA, F. F.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de; LOPES, P. S.; GUIMARÃES, S. E. F.; GLÓRIA, L. S.

A significant contribution of molecular genetics is the direct use of DNA information to identify genetically superior individuals. With this approach, genome-wide selection (GWS) can be used for this... ...
