  • Genomic-enabled prediction of ordinal data with bayesian logistic ordinal reg... N3 | TTL | RDF/XML | JSON-LD

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    Most genomic-enabled prediction models developed so far assume that the response variable is continuous and normally distributed. The exception is the probit model developed for ordered categorical phenotypes. In statistical applications, due to the easy implementation of the Bayesian probit ordinal regression (BPOR) model, Bayesian logistic ordinal...

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    CIMMYT has periodically announced CIMMYT Maize Lines (CMLs). CMLs are carefully selected inbred lines with good general combining ability and a significant number of value-adding traits such as drought tolerance, N use efficiency, acid soil tolerance, resistance to diseases, insects and parasitic weeds. In many instances, they are parental lines of...

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    SI-SAS is a code written in SAS to produce several selection indexes. To run the code you have to have SAS 9.2 or higher installed in your computer. The first task is to change the folder where the data file to analyze is located and the name of the file. The data file must be in csv format with columns for variables and rows for observations. Two...

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    One of the most widely used kernel functions in genomic-enabled prediction is the Gaussian kernel. Usually selection of the bandwidth parameter for kernel regression is based on cross-validation. In this study, we propose a Bayesian method for selecting the bandwidth parameter h of a Gaussian kernel as the mode of its posterior distribution. We present a...

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    The marker × environment interaction (M×E) genomic model can be used to generate predictions for untested individuals and identify genomic regions whose effects are stable across environments and others that show environmental specificity. The objectives of this study were: (1) to extend the M×E interaction model using priors that produce shrinkage and...

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    In agricultural experimentation, a large number of genotypes are normally tested over a wide range of environments. The occurrence of the genotype (G) X environment (E) interaction (GEI) effect further complicates the selection of superior genoty pes for a target population of environments. In the absence of GEI, the superior genotype in one environment...

    A major objective of biometrical genetics is to explore the nature of gene action in determining quantitative traits. This also includes determination of the number of major genetic factors or genes responsible for the traits. Diallel Mating Designs have been designed to deal with the type of genetic experiments that help assess variability in observed...

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    We apply a Genomic Selection Index (GSI) to simulated and real data sets with four traits and numerically we compared its efficiency with that of the phenotypic selection index (PSI) using the ratio of the GSI response over the PSI response. In addition, we used two additional criteria to compare the GSI vs PSI efficiency: the ratio of the average of the...

    CIMMYT Ethiopia
    The Semi-Arid Wheat Yield Trial (SAWYT) is a replicated yield trial that contains spring bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) germplasm adapted to low rainfall, drought prone environments typically receiving less than 500 mm of water available during the cropping cycle. The combination of water-use efficiency and water responsive broad adaptation plus yield...
