Selection 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 کاملEstimating additive and dominance variances for complex traits in pigs combining genomic and pedigree information.
Knowledge of dominance effects should improve ge-netic evaluations, provide the accurate selection of purebred animals, and enable better breeding strategies, including the exploitation of het-erosis in crossbreeds. In this study, we combined genomic and pedi-gree data to study the relative importance of additive and dominance genetic variation in growth and carcass traits in an F2 pig populati...
متن کاملThe Value of Progeny Test Programs
The Beef Information Nucleus is a series of large, well structured progeny test programs undertaken by Breed Societies with cofunding assistance from Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA). Young bulls of high genetic merit are joined by either AI or natural mating to a commercial cow base to produce progeny which are managed commercially as one cohort and measured for a range of economically traits....
متن کاملImproving pedigree-based linkage analysis by estimating coancestry among families.
We present a method for improving the power of linkage analysis by detecting chromosome segments shared identical by descent (IBD) by individuals not known to be related. Existing Markov chain Monte Carlo methods sample descent patterns on pedigrees conditional on observed marker data. These patterns can be stored as IBD graphs, which express shared ancestry only, rather than specific family r...
متن کاملEstimating population size using single‐nucleotide polymorphism‐based pedigree data
Reliable population estimates are an important aspect of sustainable wildlife management and conservation but can be difficult to obtain for rare and elusive species. Here, we test a new census method based on pedigree reconstruction recently developed by Creel and Rosenblatt (2013). Using a panel of 96 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), we genotyped fecal samples from two Swedish brown be...
