The influence of breeding intensity on above- and below-average sexual performance rams in single- and multiple-sire breeding environments.
Two studies were conducted to evaluate the relationship between serving capacity scores and breeding performance of rams. The first study was conducted to determine whether rams with above or below mean serving capacity scores could perform equally in greater and lesser breeding intensity, single-sire mating schemes. The second study was conducted to determine whether rams with above and below ...
متن کاملPrediction of Average Daughter Performance from Sire Proofs for Use in Linear Programming Sire Profit Models
When linear programming is used to rank sires on daughter profits, coefficients of input are required for representative daughters of each sire. Within herdyear-season regressions of daughter's actual 305-day milk, fat percent, days open, 2-min milk yield adjusted for total yield, total milking time, and body weight at birth and first calving on sire's proofs for production, conformation, milki...
متن کاملEvaluations for service-sire conception rate for heifer and cow inseminations with conventional and sexed semen.
Service-sire conception rate (SCR), a phenotypic fertility evaluation based on conventional (nonsexed) inseminations from parities 1 through 5, was implemented for the United States in August 2008. The SCR model contains the categorical fixed effects of parity for lactations 1 to 5; state-year-month of insemination group; 6 standardized milk yield groups; service number for inseminations 1 to 7...
متن کاملPrediction of heifer transmitting ability from genetic evaluations of sire, dam, and maternal grandsire.
Estimated transmitting abilities for milk of 258,201 Holstein heifers from first lactations were regressed on sire's milk proof, maternal grandsire's milk proof, and either dam's estimated transmitting ability from milk in first lactation or dams's estimated transmitting ability from milk of all lactations. Effects of year of birth of dam, dam's estimated transmitting ability for milk from firs...
متن کاملThe mating behavior and reproduction performance in a multi-sire mating system for pigs.
An important aim of organic animal production is to allow natural animal behaviour. Regarding reproduction techniques, artificial insemination is permitted but natural mating is preferred. The outdoor multi-sire system, where the sows are placed in large paddocks with a group of boars, is one example of a service system, which complies well with the organic ideals of facilitating natural animal...
