1 A trait measured on full-sibs of the selection candidates
2 W-FAM = genomic selection with marker effects estimated within full-sib families and combined with conventional BLUP family breeding values. 10% of the candidates were pre-selected, and pre-selected candidates, and all or half of their test-individuals, were genotyped for 12 markers per Morgan.
