The model is based on modified theory for multitier open nucleus breeding schemes. It is shown that the percentage increase in genetic gain of assortative mating over random mating is greatly increased at low to moderate heritability when BLUP rather than mass selection is used. The percentage increase in genetic gain at equilibrium of assortative mating over random mating is independent of initial heritability and family structure when selection is on BLUP ebv. The same is true in the early generations if there is ample pedigree history available before selection commences. The deterministic prediction of the percentage increase in genetic gain at equilibrium of assortative mating over random mating is 11 24 and 66 when 10 50 and 90 of progeny are selected on BLUP ebv. Stochastic simulation is used to evaluate the accuracy of the deterministic model. Both deterministic and stochastic results for assortative mating indicate a considerably increased value over random mating in certain situations than has previously been reported. assortative mating selection BLUP genetic group open nucleus Resume Un modèle déterministe d homogamie après selection dans un schema à plusieurs étages.
