Genetic Parameter Estimates for Lactation Curve Parameters, Milk Yield, Age at First Calving, Calving Interval and Somatic Cell Count in Holstein Cows
The objective of this study was to estimates the genetic and environmental components for the lactation curve parameters, milk yield, age at first calving (AFC), calving interval (CI) and somatic cell count (SCC) in Iranian Holstein cows. The dataset consisted of 210625 test day records from 25883 cows with milk yield in the first parity recorded from July 2002 to September 2007 in a total of 9...
متن کاملGenetic Trends for Milk Yield, Persistency of Milk Yield,Somatic Cell Count and Calving Interval in Holstein Dairy Cows of Iran
The objective of the present study was to estimate genetic trends for lactation milk yield, persistency of milk yield, somatic cell count and interval between first and second calving in Holstein dairy cows of Iran. The dataset consisted of 210,625 test day and 25,883 first parity cows with milk yield recorded from July 2002 to September 2007 comprising 97 herds in Iran. Breeding values of anim...
متن کاملSimple and Constrained Selection Indices with and without Calving Interval Included in Selection Goal Function for Holstein Cows of Iran
Two selection goals of inclusion or exclusion of calving interval (CI) in the selection goal function for Holstein cows in Iran, besides milk yield, milk fat percentage, and milk protein percentage, were studied. Four selection indices were composed of using the information on production traits, CI and / or days from calving to first insemination (DFI). The results of the predicted genetic grow...
متن کاملGenetic (Co)variance between Age from First to Third Calving and Milk Yield of Holstein Cows in the Tropics
A total of 245187 records of the first three lactations of 131126 Holstein cows in tropical conditions were used to estimate the genetic (co)variance components between age at calving and its respective milk productions. A multivariate analysis of six traits was performed. Heritability for age at calving (h2AC) and milk yield (h2MY) decrease from the ...
متن کاملAssociation between the lactation curve shape and calving interval in Holstein dairy cows of Iran
This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between early lactation curve parameters andcalving interval in Holstein cows of Iran. In order to describe the lactation curve, the incomplete gammafunction was fitted to 5,754,428 test-day milk records corresponding to 766,108 lactations on 315,634 cowsin 2,448 herds. Cows with higher milk yield during early lactation had shorter calv...
