GENOMIC SELECTION IMPROVES RESPONSE TO SELECTION IN RESILIENCE BY EXPLOITING GENOTYPE BY ENVIRONMENT INTERACTIONS

Genomic selection improves response to selection in resilience by exploiting genotype by environment interactions

Genotype by environment interactions (GxE) are very common in livestock and hamper genetic improvement.On the other hand, GxE is a source of genetic variation: genetic variation in response to environment, e.g.environmental perturbations such as heat stress or disease.In livestock breeding, there is tendency to ignore GxE because of increased compl
