The prediction of producing desirable traits in offspring such as
increased growth rate or superior meat, milk and wool production is a
vital economic tool to the animal scientist. Summarizing the latest
developments in genomics relating to animal breeding values and design of
breeding programs, this new edition includes models of survival analysis,
social interaction and sire and dam models, as well as advancements in the
use of SNPs in the computation of genomic breeding values.
Raphael A. Mrode is at the Scottish Agricultural College, Edinburgh, UK.
