Contribution of Genetic and Phenotypic Parameters Affecting Fleece Traits in 3/4th Bred Bharat Merino Sheep
The contribution of genetic and phenotypic parameters affecting fleece traits in 3/4th bred 2425 Bharat Merino Lambs sired by 154 rams over period of 1982-96 was evaluated. The year and season of shearing, sex of lamb, type of birth, age and weight of lamb contributed 8 to 42% of the phenotypic variability in the fleece traits. The least square means for the first and second six monthly greasy ...
متن کاملGenetic variability and population structure of Raeini Cashmere goat breed assessed from pedigree analysis
Pedigree information which collected from 1979 to 2012 were used to study the genetic variability and population structure of Raeini Cashmere goat, taking kids born from 2009 to 2012 into account as reference population. Averages of inbreeding coefficients in whole and inbred populations were computed to be 0.04% and 4.41%, respectively. Considering the reference population, average inbreeding ...
متن کاملEstimates of (co)variance components and genetic parameters for body weights and first greasy fleece weight in Bharat Merino sheep.
(Co)variance components and genetic parameters of weight at birth (BWT), weaning (3WT), 6, 9 and 12 months of age (6WT, 9WT and 12WT, respectively) and first greasy fleece weight (GFW) of Bharat Merino sheep, maintained at Central Sheep and Wool Research Institute, Avikanagar, Rajasthan, India, were estimated by restricted maximum likelihood, fitting six animal models with various combinations ...
متن کاملEffect of time and depth of insemination on fertility of Bharat Merino sheep inseminated trans-cervical with frozen-thawed semen
BACKGROUND Artificial insemination (AI) can serve as a powerful tool to the sheep owners for making rapid genetic progress of their flock. The AI in sheep is mostly performed using fresh semen with two reasons i) lambing rate following trans-cervical AI with frozen semen is limited by the inability of frozen-thawed sperm to transit the cervix and ii) the need of circumventing the cervical barri...
متن کاملLamb survival in Australian Merino sheep: a genetic analysis.
Direct and maternal components of variance for lamb survival to birth, 7 d, and weaning (110 d) were estimated by REML procedures in a flock of Australian Merino sheep. A total of 14,142 lambs, the progeny of 421 sires and 3,666 dams, born between 1975 and 1983 were available for analysis. The study has produced some of the most precise estimates of genetic parameters for lamb survival in the A...
