Title: | Scope for estimation of variances due to sex-linked, maternal and dominance effects in mixed model analyses | Contributor(s): | Meyer, Karin (author) | Publication Date: | 2007 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/4181 | Abstract: | Simulation and calculations based on the likelihood function are used to examine the sampling properties of maximum likelihood estimates of variance components due to sex-linked, maternal and dominance effects. Data are assumed to have been collected in an experiment designed specifically to provide a sufficient set of covariances between relatives for this task. Results show that variances due to sex-linked and dominance effects are inherently difficult to estimate. Moreover, the design suggested appears to be unsuitable to separate maternal, permanent environmental and dominance variances. The investigations shown are recommended as part of the design stage of quantitative genetic experiments. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | AAABG 2007: 17th Conference of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Armidale, Australia, 23rd - 26th September, 2007 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, v.17, p. 407-410 | Publisher: | Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics (AAABG) | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | ISSN: | 1328-3227 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 060412 Quantitative Genetics (incl Disease and Trait Mapping Genetics) | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 830301 Beef Cattle | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/35062558?selectedversion=NBD42373479 http://www.aaabg.org/livestocklibrary/2007/meyer407.pdf |
