Genomic selection for maternal traits in pigs.
The aim of this study was to compare alternative designs for implementation of genomic selection to improve maternal traits in pigs, with a conventional breeding scheme and a progeny testing scheme. The comparison was done through stochastic simulation of a pig population. It was assumed that selection was performed based on a trait that could be measured on females after the first litter, with...
متن کاملSingle-step methods for genomic evaluation in pigs.
Genetic evaluation based on information from phenotypes, pedigree and markers can be implemented using a recently developed single-step method. In this paper we compare accuracies of predicted breeding values for daily gain and feed conversion ratio (FCR) in Danish Duroc pigs obtained from different versions of single-step methods, the traditional pedigree-based method and the genomic BLUP (GBL...
متن کاملEstimation of genetic and phenotypic parameters for sow productivity traits in South African Large White pigs
________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract The objective of the study was to estimate genetic and phenotypic parameters for sow productivity traits of South African Large White pigs, using data from the Integrated Registration and Genetic Information Systems. The analyses were done on 29 719 records for 7 983 sows from 29 herds, which farrowed betw...
متن کاملDetecting QTL for feed intake traits and other performance traits in growing pigs in a Piétrain-Large White backcross.
Knowing the large difference in daily feed intake (DFI) between Large White (LW) and Piétrain (PI) growing pigs, a backcross (BC) population has been set up to map QTL that could be used in marker assisted selection strategies. LW × PI boars were mated with sows from two LW lines to produce 16 sire families. A total of 717 BC progeny were fed ad libitum from 30 to 108 kg BW using single-place e...
متن کاملRunning head : Single - step genomic BLUP for Angus Genetic evaluation using single - step genomic BLUP in American Angus
Predictive ability of genomic EBV when using single-step genomic BLUP 1 (ssGBLUP) in Angus cattle was investigated. Over 6 million records were available on birth 2 weight (BW) and weaning weight (WW), almost 3.4 million on post-weaning gain (PWG), and 3 over 1.3 million on calving ease (CE). Genomic information was available on at most 51,883 4 animals, which included high and low EBV accuracy...
