Effect of Genetic Group, Season, Their Interaction, Temperature, Humidity and Temperature-Humidity Index on Maintenance Behavior of Stud Bulls
Stud bull plays an important role in the development of animal husbandry. Detailed knowledge about maintenance behavior of stud bulls is essential for practicing better management conditions in the farm to support the artificial insemination (AI) industry demand. Therefore, a comparative study was conducted on stud bulls to evaluate the effect of genetic group, season, genetic group × season in...
متن کاملSelection of Sahiwal Cattle Bulls on Pedigree and Progeny
The objective of the study was to compare ranking of Sahiwal bulls selected on the basis of highest lactation milk yield of their dams with their estimated breeding values (EBVs) using an animal model. Data on 23,761 lactation milk yield records of 5,936 cows from five main Livestock Experiment Stations in Punjab province of Pakistan (1964-2004) were used for the study. At present the young A.I...
متن کاملGenetic variability and population structure of Raeini Cashmere goat breed assessed from pedigree analysis
Pedigree information which collected from 1979 to 2012 were used to study the genetic variability and population structure of Raeini Cashmere goat, taking kids born from 2009 to 2012 into account as reference population. Averages of inbreeding coefficients in whole and inbred populations were computed to be 0.04% and 4.41%, respectively. Considering the reference population, average inbreeding ...
متن کاملPedigree Analysis for Genetic Counseling
We report on the design and implementation of a prototype program, GENINFER , to assist genetic counselors in evaluating the risk of recurrence of genetic disorders based on the analysis of family pedigrees. The present version of the program integrates a convenient graphical interface that permits counselors to draw, examine and modify family pedigrees and to enter information relevant to ri...
متن کاملMerit of outliers for milk yield as indicators of accuracy of genetic evaluations of sires.
To determine whether the accuracy of the genetic evaluations of sires can be assessed by the presence of extreme daughter records, we studied herd-years with records from first-crop daughters of 217 Holstein bulls that were not sampled by artificial insemination (AI) organizations but that later entered AI. The presence of outliers for standardized milk yield was determined within herd-year. Ou...
