Covariances among sire by breed group of dam interaction effects in multibreed sire evaluation procedures.
In multibreed populations, bulls need to be evaluated for additive and nonadditive genetic effects. When the nonadditive genetic effects associated with a bull are defined as sire x breed-group-of-dam interactions, they can be expressed as linear combinations of interactions between alleles of one or more breeds at one or more loci. If these specific allelic interactions are assumed to be indep...
متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
15 صفحه اولComparison and improvements of different Bayesian procedures to integrate external information into genetic evaluations.
The aim of this research was to compare different Bayesian procedures to integrate information from outside a given evaluation system, hereafter called external information, and in this context estimated breeding values (EBV), into this genetic evaluation, hereafter called internal evaluation, and to improve the Bayesian procedures to assess their potential to combine information from diverse s...
متن کاملComparison of Three Methods of Sire Evaluation
Three methods of sire evaluation were compared empirically--herdmate comparison, least squares, and maximum likelihood. Michigan Dairy Herd Improvement Association Holstein data representing 10,620 first lactation records and 1,003 herd-year groups were analyzed. Forty individual bulls representing three artificial insemination units were evaluated. The rank correlations among herdmate comparis...
