The predictive ability of indirect genetic models is reduced when culled animals are omitted from the data
BACKGROUND: Physical removal of individuals from groups causes reductions in group sizes and changes in group composition, which may affect the predictive ability of estimates of indirect genetic effects of animals on phenotypes of group mates. We hypothesized that including indirect genetic effects...
