Estimation of Genetic Parameters for Kleiber Ratio and Trends for Weight at Birth and Weaning in Arabi Sheep
Objective: Estimation of genetic parameters for Kleiber ratio (KR) and genetic trends for pre-weaning weights of Arabi sheep has not been previously conducted.Methods: Data and pedigree information were collected at the Khuzestan Ramin Agricultural and Natural Resources University, Animal Science Research Station, located in southwest Iran, from 2001 to 2008. (Co)variance components and corresp...

متن کاملEstimation of direct, maternal, and grandmaternal genetic effects for weaning weight in several breeds of beef cattle.
Weaning weights from nine parental breeds and three composites were analyzed to estimate variance due to grandmaternal genetic effects and to compare estimates for variance due to maternal genetic effects from two different models. Number of observations ranged from 794 to 3,465 per population. Number of animals in the pedigree file ranged from 1,244 to 4,326 per population. Two single-trait an...

متن کاملInvestigation of direct and maternal genetic effects on birth and weaning weight of Chios lambs
Direct additive and maternal genetic effects on birth and weaning weight of Chios lambs were investigated. The data originated from the Agricultural Research Station of Chalkidiki and comprised 7318 lambs, raised over the period from 1977 to 1992. Variance components were estimated using restricted maximum likelihood, fitting six different animal models, by 2 including or excluding maternal eff...
