An application of Bayesian techniques to the genetic evaluation of growth traits in Eucalyptus globulus

Abstract: A Bayesian procedure coupled with Gibbs sampling was implemented to obtain inferences about genetic parameters and breeding values for height and diameter of 7-year-old Eucalyptus globulus Labill. is described. The data set consisted of 21 708 trees from 260 open-pollinated families taken from 10 different Australian provenances, from one Spanish population, and from two clones. The trees are distributed over eight sites in the south of Spain, with 20 blocks per site. Data were corrected for heterogeneity of p… Show more

“…This average relationship between trees could be used instead of 0.25 to modify the additive relationship matrix A. Different authors have used different coefficients of relationship in the same or different Eucalyptus species, ranging from 0.25 to 0.54 (see Hodge et al 1996; (Soria et al 1998…”

Under normality of breeding values and errors, the conditional likelihood of the observed data can be written as being proportional to: [12] where e = y -…”

“…Block, family and their interactions were treated as random effects. Site and block variances were standardized to a variance of one for within or across-site analyses as appropriate, by dividing the deviation from the site or block mean by the site or block standard deviation using SAS PROC STANDARD (SAS, 1990), in order to avoid exaggerated genetic-by-environment interactions (Soria et al, 1998).…”
