Sankhyā: The Indian Journal of Statistics, Series B (1960-2002), Vol. 62, No. 3 (Dec., 2000), pp. 463-471 (9 pages) Stayability, the ability to stay in the herd is an important character in dairy ...

Tables were compiled to show coefficients of variation for different experimental designs to estimate genetic heritability. It is concluded that in order to obtain estimates precise enough for their ...

Models to estimate heritability (twin or SNP h2) are typically linear models that can be seen as extensions of the simple linear model between two variables, from which one estimates a correlation.

Sequencing nearly half a million genomes, researchers show that most additive genetic influences on height, lipids, and other complex traits are now directly measurable, while pinpointing ultra-rare ...

This section covers Twin and SNP heritability, h2 from whole genome sequencing, non-additive genetic effects and GWAS approaches. To better compare and understand the different approaches and models ...

Kate Lynch receives funding from Macquarie University. Geneticists quantify the proportion that genes contribute using a heritability estimate, represented as h². When traits are claimed to be genetic ...

The Pith: Even traits where most of the variation you see around you is controlled by genes still exhibit a lot of variation within families. That's why there are siblings of very different heights or ...
