Table 4 Genomic vs. pedigree based prediction accuracies for amoebic gill disease. PBLUP_I and PBLUP_II – Pedigree based breeding values using phenotypes from only genotyped or all phenotyped animals, respectively. GBLUP - Genomic breeding values from only genotype animals, and ssGBLUP - Genomic breeding values from all genotyped and phenotyped animals obtained with a combined relationship matrix (H).
