From: Fine mapping of QTL and genomic prediction using allele-specific expression SNPs demonstrates that the complex trait of genetic resistance to Marek’s disease is predominantly determined by transcriptional regulation

Accuracy of estimated breeding values based on ASE SNPs compared to BLUP. Accuracy was based on a progeny test whereby 60 roosters from the tails of the distributions were each reciprocally mated to 6 random F7 hens, and the resulting progeny scored for MD incidence. The accuracy of the breeding values estimated either by pedigree or ASE SNPs was determined by correlating the mean survival of progeny from each rooster with expected breeding values based on either pedigree (EBV) or from SNPS (GEBV)
