Estimating the genetic merit of sires by using pooled DNA from progeny of undetermined pedigree

BACKGROUND: DNA-based predictions for hard-to-measure production traits hold great promise for selective breeding programs. DNA pooling might provide a cheap genomic approach to use phenotype data from commercial flocks which are commonly group-mated with parentage unknown. This study on sheep explo...
