Abstract

Most of the calculations for genetic relationship matrices and their inverses utilized in recent (t + 1) evaluations for populations of interest can be avoided by updating these matrices at t evaluations for only new animals. This study describes and develops existing methods for updating pedigree-based and marker-based relationship matrices and their inverses. Updating some of the matrices could benefit from parallel computing.
