Estimation of Genetic Parameters for Calving Ease by Heifers and Cows Using Multi-trait Threshold Animal Models with Bayesian Approach
Genetic parameters for birth weights (BWT), calving ease scores observed from calves born by heifers (CEH), and calving ease scores observed from calves born by cows (CEC) were estimated using Bayesian methodology with Gibbs sampling in different threshold animal models. Data consisted of 77,458 records for calving ease scores and birth weights in Gelbvieh cattle. Gibbs samplers were used to ob...
متن کاملEstimation of genetic parameters of litter size in Moghani sheep using threshold model via Bayesian approach
This study was conducted to estimate the genetic parameters of litter size (LS) in Moghani sheep using threshold model via Bayesian approach. The data originated from the Jafar-Abad Station of Ardabil province, Iran, and included 9698 lactation records of 4977 ewes with lambings from 1995 until 2010. The pedigree file consisted of data on animals born from 1987 to 2010. The significance of fixe...
متن کاملEstimation of Genetic Parameters for Production and Reproduction Traits of Holstein Cows of Mazandaran Province using Bayesian Approach
The present study was conducted to estimate the genetic and phenotypic parameters of productive and reproductive traits of Holstein cows in Mazandaran Holstein dairy cattle. To this purpose, data 39792 records of Holstein cows collected at Mahdasht Milk and Meat Company in sari during 1986 to 2015 were used. Productive traits included corrected 305 days milk records, fat and protein produ...
متن کاملGenetic parameters for growth, reproductive performance, calving ease and suckling performance in beef cattle heifers
There is considerable concern about the consequences on fitness-related traits of using narrow breeding objectives for production traits. The aim of this study was to assess the potential consequences of selection for growth in French beef cattle breeds by estimating genetic correlations between growth, reproduction, calving and suckling traits of Charolais, Limousin and Blonde d’Aquitaine heif...
متن کاملestimation of genetic parameters for lamb survival in zandi sheep breeds using animal, sire and threshold models.
in this research, 6517 records, collected by khojir sheep breeding station (tehran, iran), during 1991 to 2011 were used to estimate genetic parameters of lamb survival in zandi sheep. genetic parameters were estimated using 16 different models of animal model, sire and threshold models using reml procedures. the aic criterion was used to evaluate the models. the effects in the most suitable an...
