Genetics

Animal Genetics and Breeding Unit, University of New England, Armidale NSW 2351, Australia.

Published: January 2012

A strategy to reduce computational demands of genome-wide association studies fitting a mixed model is presented. Improvements are achieved by utilizing a large proportion of calculations that remain constant across the multiple analyses for individual markers involved, with estimates obtained without inverting large matrices.
