Motivation
• Decreasing costs of whole genome sequence
• Revived interest in causative variants for prediction
• Several authors are finding and using causative variants• No improvement :
• Binsbergen et al., 2015 and Erbe et al., 2016
• Up to 5% improvement:• Brondum et al. 2015 and Vanraden et al., 2017

Motivation
•ssGBLUP was able to reach accuracies close to 1 with simulated causative variants•When priori used for weights were the simulated
QTN effects
•GWA estimated weights had limited impact•GWA Methodology – no limitation in minimum and
maximum weights

Objective
•Test different SNP weighting methods in GBLUP and ssGBLUP in field data which includes causative variants.

Field Data
• 4M Records for Stature
• 3M Cows
• 4.6M Animals in pedigree
• h2=0.44
• 27k Genotyped Sires• 54k SNP
• 54k SNP + 17k Causative Variants (VanRaden et al., 2017)

Analysis
•GBLUP• Multi-step approach• Daughter deviation as
phenotypes• Genomic Relationship
Matrix• Homogeneous or
heterogeneous residual variance
• ssGBLUP• Same model as national
evaluation for type traits• No deregressions• Matrix combining
pedigree and genomic information (H)

Conclusion
• Gains with inclusion of causative variants is limited when trait is polygenic
• Gains with causative variants has more impact in GBLUP than in ssGBLUP• More data is used in single-step methodology, therefore impact of prior is less
important
• Non-linear methodology is better for weighting marker effects than linear weights
