They restricted themselves to the situations exactly the same as those in the aggregate genotype. et al.

First we describe the selection index of Ynr.tnDn et al. (1975). The expected gains after applying the selection index I = b’p in O one generation are : E(Ag) = iG’b/ where i is the 0’/ = b’Pb. Because E(Ag) is proportional to i and 0’/’ it is sufficient to solve b such that : intensity of selection and ’/ 0 is the standard deviation of the index, i.e. m and G has full column rank. Ifn m or G is not of full column rank, equations (1) may be inconsistent and have no solution in general. If these equations are consistent, they have solutions, but no unique solution I2 b’Pb + k’ (G’b - d) so that the best choice among all (r,, wh
