Economic optimization of full-sib test group size and genotyping effort in a breeding program for Atlantic salmon
Background: Breeding companies may want to maximize the rate of genetic gain from their breeding program within a limited budget. In salmon breeding programs, full-sibs of selection candidates are subjected to performance tests for traits that cannot be recorded on selection candidates. While margin...
