Genomic prediction of breeding values for carcass traits in Nellore cattle

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of genomic predictions for rib eye area (REA), backfat thickness (BFT), and hot carcass weight (HCW) in Nellore beef cattle from Brazilian commercial herds using different prediction models. METHODS: Phenotypic data from 1756 Nello...
