Estimates of genetic trend for single-step genomic evaluations

Table 3 Estimated heritabilities and norm of the vector of mean breeding values per generation deviated from ‘pedigree only’ values for different SS-GBLUP analyses

Model\(^{\mathrm{{a}}}\)	λ	Freq.\(^{\mathrm{{b}}}\)	h ^2c	\(\sigma _P^{2}\) \(^{\mathrm{{d}}}\)	Norm
M0	1.0	all	0.08	0.56	0.185
	0.5	all	0.08	0.56	0.049
MG	1.0	all	0.09	0.56	0.049
MA	1.0	all	0.11	0.57	0.031
	1.0	half	0.09	0.58	0.025

\(^{\mathrm{{a}}}\) M0: No alignment between GRM and NRM, MG: Modifying the GRM by adding \(\alpha {\mathbf{J}}\), and MA: Extending the NRM to include a meta-founder with self-relationship \(\gamma\)
\(^{\mathrm{{b}}}\) Frequencies to center marker allele counts – all: using all genotypes in the subset and half: assuming frequencies of value 0.5 throughout
\(^{\mathrm{{c}}}\) Heritability
\(^{\mathrm{{d}}}\) Phenotypic variance
