FSPAK - a sparse matrix
package than can exactly solve and invert matrices of rank 100,000 or larger
JAA20 - a popular
single-trait animal model program that also computes approximate prediction
error variances
MTC - a multitrait REML
program that uses the canonical transformation but allows for several random
effects
MTJAA20 -
a multitrait solving program by Nicolas Gengler that combines the features of
JAA20 and MTC
RENUM - a companion
renumbering program that accepts alphanumeric animal fields, validates birth
dates, removes most redundant animals, and assigns unknown parent groups
CMMAT2 – a threshold
model program that estimates variances using quasi-REML; supports sire-MGS
models with one random effect absorbed; uses dense matrices.
RENDOM – a collection of programs to create files useful to create dominance relationships and estimate dominance effects.
