Dr István Nagy is a specialist in the field of breeding value estimation (and genetic parameter estimation) using BLUP methodology. Besides, he has high interest in quantitative genetics especially in inbreeding theory, as well as inbreeding depression and purging (based on genealogy information). Based on the distribution of the analysed traits the applied statistical procedures may involve logistic regression, Poisson regression, GLMM (logit or log link function) and survival analysis (Cox regression). These procedures can be applied on any species but in most cases his target species include rabbit and pig, respectively.
