BLUPF90 Family of Programs
Now with support for genomic selection
Ignacy Misztal, Daniela Lourenco, and collaborators, University of Georgia
BLUPF90 family of programs is a collection of software in Fortran 90/95 for mixed model computations in animal breeding. The goal of the software is to be as simple as with a matrix package and as efficient as in a programming language. For general description, see a paper from the CCB'99 workshop or see a paper on BGF90 at 7th WCGALP.
For variance component estimation, the family offers choices for simple and complicated models; see paper “Reliable computing in estimation of variance components” . From 2009 the programs are successively modified for genomic selection using a single-step approach (or ssGBLUP) by Ignacio Aguilar and Shogo Tsuruta.
For support, join Blupf90 Discussion Group at Groups.io. We moved from Yahoo Groups to Groups.io on November 7, 2019, mainly because of the unavailability of key features in Yahoo Groups. We no longer maintain the old group.
