abstract：:A variety of statistical methods, such as admixture models, have been used to estimate genomic breed composition (GBC). These methods, however, tend to produce non-zero components to reference breeds that shared some genomic similarity with a test animal. These non-essential GBC components, in turn, offset the estimat...
