Abstract:
Data simulated with five levels of pedigree errors (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) and three heritabilities (.10, .30 and .60) were used to verify the effect of pedigree errors on the selection during 10 generations. The largest phenotypic values and efficiency on the individual selection, in overall, were obtained by BLUP without errors, followed by those with 5, 10, 15 and 20% of error. The average superiority in genetic gain of the BLUP per generation, in the various error levels, on the individual selection, decreased with the increase of the heritability of the trait. As the error level increased, the BLUP presented bigger reduction on the genetic gain for the traits with smaller heritabilities.
