Genomic Selection - Introduction to Genomics Theory
Explore the cutting-edge world of genomic selection in this 37-minute introductory video from Genomics Boot Camp. Dive into the fundamentals of breeding values based on traditional progeny testing methods, then compare these to genomic breeding value estimation. Discover the parallels with marker-assisted selection and understand the methodological approaches behind standard multi-step and single-step genomic selection. Learn how this state-of-the-art technique identifies individuals with the highest breeding value and increases genetic gain in populations. Follow along as the video breaks down complex concepts, from the genomic breeding scheme to the impact of genomic selection on genetic gain. Suitable for beginners, this comprehensive overview includes personal insights, acknowledgments, and a summary to reinforce key points. Access additional resources, including the full video playlist and PowerPoint presentations, to further enhance your understanding of genomics theory.
