Conteúdo: | Stayability (STAY) is a binary trait with significant value economically. It measures both the cow`s reproductive performance and longevity simultaneously. Thus, STAY is one of the most important female selection criterion in Nellore beef cattle breeding programs. The "success" for STAY is defined as the ability of a cow to stay in the herd up to 76 months of age and to have at least three calve. Despite its importance, STAY has not been investigated under a machine learning (ML) framework, which might allow to intuitively capture linear and nonlinear relationships (e.g., non-additive effects) between a response variable and other predictor variables. In this study, we compared different ML tools using a genome-enabled approach to classify daughters (non-genotyped animals but with STAY records) of genotyped sires. In total, 44,626 STAY records from daughters of 559 bulls genotyped with the 777K SNP panel were available for this study. The genotyped data were subdivided into three SNP sets based on the top-ranked effect on STAY: 1K-, 3K-, and 5K-SNP panels. The following ML algorithms were evaluated: AdaBoost (ADA), Naïve Bayes (NB), Decision Tree (DT), Deep Neural Network (DNN), k-Nearest Neighbors (NN), Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLP), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The analyses were performed using free Scikit-learn for the Python programming language. No relevant improvements in the learning process of the evaluated algorithms were observed when the number of SNPs in the genotype dataset was increased (i.e., 1K-, 3K-, or 5K-SNP panel). In short, NB outperformed the other algorithms considering, for example, the balanced accuracy (0.62 ± 0.01) and sensitivity (0.56 ± 0.02) metrics. In conclusion, the use of the 1K-SNP panel allowed efficient genomic classification and the NB algorithm outperformed the other methods as indicated by various classification metrics. To best of our knowledge, this is the first study using ML and genome-enabled classification of STAY in beef cattle.
