Data exchange in the Interbeef international evaluations (above the dotted line) and integration procedure (green area). Italy and foreign countries each run independent national evaluations using nationally available information: pedigree (ped), phenotypes (pheno) and genotypes (in yellow). National phenotypic and pedigree information are used in pedigree-based international evaluations to compute international EBV (EBVINT). If available, genotypes can be used in ssSNPBLUP international evaluations (in yellow) to compute international genomic EBV (GEBVINT). ssSNPBLUP evaluations are not yet part of routine Interbeef evaluations. PBLUP pedigree-based BLUP, ssSNPBLUP single-step SNPBLUP, (G)EBV (genomic) estimated breeding value, REL reliability, INT international, NAT national, EBVblend blended EBV, DRP de-regressed proofs, ERC effective record contribution, DRP* adjusted DRP, dERC* adjusted de-regressed ERC
