Replication Data for: Approximate kernels for large data sets In genome-based prediction

Abstract

The rapid development of molecular markers and sequencing technologies has made it possible to use genomic selection (GS) and genomic prediction (GP) in animal and plant breeding. However, computational difficulties arise when the number of observations is large. This five datasets provided here were used to support a comparative analysis of two genomic-enabled prediction models: the full genomic method single environment (FGSE) and the approximate kernel method for a single environment model (APSE). The data were also used to compare the full genomic method with genotype × environment model (FGGE) to the approximate kernel method with genotype × environment interaction (APGE). The results of the analyses are described in the related publication.
