Accuracy of genomic prediction for growth and carcass traits in Chinese triple-yellow chickens

BACKGROUND: Growth and carcass traits are very important traits for broiler chickens. However, carcass traits can only be measured postmortem. Genomic selection may be a powerful tool for such traits because of its accurate prediction of breeding values of animals without own phenotypic information....
