Two-level preconditioning applied on the ssSNPBLUP model

The single-step single nucleotide polymorphism best linear unbiased prediction (ssSNPBLUP) model can potentially be used in animal breeding for genetic evaluations. It has been reported that this model has convergence issues when the Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (PCG) method is applied. This is due to the linear system being ill-conditioned...
