Estimation of genetic parameters for somatic cell score in Holsteins.
Genetic parameters of somatic cell scores for Holstein cows were estimated using an animal model and REML for two data sets. Set 1, with 13,017 records from 5278 cows, was used to obtain variance components, heritability, and repeatability for two lactation measures: the simple average and the weighted average of test day data. Set 2, with 14,418 records from 4806 cows, was used to obtain genet...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of somatic cell score in danish holsteins using a liability-normal mixture model.
Mixture models are appealing for identifying hidden structures affecting somatic cell score (SCS) data, such as unrecorded cases of subclinical mastitis. Thus, liability-normal mixture (LNM) models were used for genetic analysis of SCS data, with the aim of predicting breeding values for such cases of mastitis. Here, putative mastitis statuses and breeding values for liability to putative masti...
متن کاملEstimation of genetic parameters for production traits and somatic cell score in Iranian Holstein dairy cattle using random regression model
In this study test-day records of milk (kg), fat (g), and protein (g) yields, somatic cell score (SCS, cells/ML) collected by Animal Breeding Center of Iran during 2007 and 2009 were used to estimate genetic parameters using random regression model. Models with different order of Legendre polynomials were compared using Bayesian information criterion (BIC).For milk, fat yield and SCS genetic an...
متن کاملGenetic correlation of average somatic cell score at different stages of lactation with milk yield and composition in Holstein cows
Genetic and non-genetic correlations of the average somatic cell score (SCS) at different stages oflactation (100, 150, 200, 305 and 365 days in milk) with lactation performance were estimated based on thefirst lactation records of Iranian Holstein calving during 2000 to 2009. (Co) variance components wereestimated using derivative-free REML based on multiple traits animal models. The estimated...
متن کاملEstimation of Genetic Parameters and Genetic Trends of Somatic Cell Score in Iranian Holstein Cows Using Test-Day Records
The aim of the present study was to estimate the genetic parameters and genetic trends of somatic cell score (SCS) in the first 3 lactations of Iranian Holstein cows by random regression (RR) animal model by using Restricted Maximum Likelihood (REML) method. The data set used in this analysis included observations of 340318 test-day records of 41526 cows in 288 herds; 89969 test-day of 11750 co...
