Developement and Management of Heifers for Controlled Breeding Programs
Cow-calf producers require a consistent source of replacement females in order to maintain the size of the breeding herd at the desired level. Replacement females may be produced internally or acquired from external sources. This discussion will focus upon the critical control points that range from the selection criteria used in mating decisions to produce potential replacement heifers to the ...
متن کاملFruit quality in almond: chemical aspects for breeding strategies
Almond (Prunus amygdalus Batsch) kernel composition is a basic aspect for almond quality evaluation, but, with the exception of kernel taste, only nut and kernel physical traits have been considered so far in almond evaluation. Kernel bitterness, due to the presence of amygdalin, has been thoroughly studied from the physiological and genetic points of view, but not the other chemical traits, wh...
متن کاملManagement Factors Influencing Fertility in Synchronized and Natural Breeding Programs
Artificial insemination provides a method to inseminate a large number of females to a single sire that has been selected and proven to be an industry leader for economically relevant traits. Thus, genetic change in a herd can occur quickly through the use of artificial insemination. With natural service, herd bulls are also selected for economically relevant traits but are limited on the numbe...
متن کاملApplication of myostatin in sheep breeding programs: A review
Myostatin or growth and differentiation factor 8 (GDF8), has been known as the factor causing double muscling phenotypes in which a series of mutations make the myostatin protein inactive, hence disabling it to regulate the deposition of muscle fibre. This phenotype happens with high frequency in a breed of sheep known as the Texel. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) studies show that a portion of t...
