Fig. 4From: Predicting the accuracy of genomic predictionsAverage observed (empirical \(r\)) accuracies of genomic estimated breeding values in the reference (blue) and target populations (red) and predicted of accuracy of genomic estimates breeding values in the target population Results are based on 50 replicates for 1-generation reference populations of generation 5 through 9 for different reference data sizes (\(N\)), heritabilities (\({h}^{2}\)), and numbers of sires and dams used for breeding. Predicted accuracies are based on the Fisher information (green) or selection index (Index; yellow) approach. The line designated with \({p}_{rt}\) is the proportional loss from the reference to the target population in accuracy of EBV based on genomic deviated from pedigree informationBack to article page
