[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1583095, member: 24565"] Fly in the ointment is the word "If" and the other implied message here is "If all of the markers". The problem now is that just some of the markers are known and folks act like it is the whole deal. It is not "garbage in/garbage out" it is merely an incomplete data system right now. And I think we can say that all DNA is not inherited equally (50/50) to offspring, we need to remember gestational programming and epigentics so that knowing some on sire and dam do not fully paint the whole future. Indiscriminate use of genomics will be used to narrow the genepool unless gene altering is also used. Just like the chase for AAA $B has already done for the Angus. So all that glitters is not gold. For now, I live in and deal with the present. [/QUOTE]
