Resumo: Estimating genetic parameters of important traits is a routine in most breeding programs. Estimates obtained by the weighted least square proceedings are nonbiased and efficient, but the actual estimating process may be cumbersome and time consuming. The calculations can and should be performed by a computer to improve the speed and the reliability of the whole process. This paper presents a computer program written in Fortran language that performs all the necessary calculations to estimate genetic parameters from means and variances of natural or experimental populations. The results are reliable and precise and the output includes statistics that evaluate the significance levels of the estimated parameters and the goodness-of-fit of the adjusted genetic model.

Os estimadores obtidos pelo método dos quadrados mínimos ponderados são eficientes e não-viesados, embora os cálculos envolvidos sejam demorados e tediosos. A tarefa de cálculo pode e deve ser realizada por computadores para dar confiabilidade e rapidez aos procedimentos. Neste trabalho apresenta-se um programa em linguagem Fortran que realiza todos os cálculos necessários à obtenção das estimativas dos parâmetros genéticos de populações experimentais. Os resultados são confiáveis e precisos e incluem estatísticas que medem a significância dos parâmetros estimados e a qualidade do ajuste do modelo genético encontrado.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileirade Toledo, José Francisco Ferraz1991-07-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/3436Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.26, n.7, jul. 1991; 1023-1039Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.26, n.7, jul. 1991; 1023-10391678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/3436/769info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2010-08-19T14:12:02Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/3436Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2010-08-19T14:12:02Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
