An alternative covariance estimator to investigate genetic heterogeneity in populations

BACKGROUND: For genomic prediction and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) using mixed models, covariance between individuals is estimated using molecular markers. Based on the properties of mixed models, using available molecular data for prediction is optimal if this covariance is known. Under...
