The objective of this study was to assess genomic prediction accuracy for meat quality traits in Hanwoo beef cattle. Genomic and phenotypic data from 2,110 Hanwoo steers were used to predict genomic estimated breeding values for marbling score, meat texture and meat colour. The accuracy of the genomic breeding value was assessed by using cross-validation for two scenarios; 1) when the reference population of animals with phenotype and genotype included family members and 2) when family members were excluded. The mean cross-validation accuracy of genomic predictions for marbling score were 0.32 and 0.46 for the distantly and closely related validations set, respectively. These accuracies were 0.28 and 0.39 for meat texture and 0.19 to 0.31 for meat colour. The results indicated that the accuracy of prediction was affected by the heritability of the trait and the degree of relationship between reference and test population. These results were based on a small sample size and should be validated with a larger data set. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | AAABG 2019: 23rd Conference of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Armidale, Australia, 27 October-1 November | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, v.23, p. 278-281 | Publisher: | Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics (AAABG) | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | ISSN: | 1328-3227 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 070201 Animal Breeding 060412 Quantitative Genetics (incl.
