ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-6992-9 The aim of this thesis was to investigate different approaches for international genetic evaluations of dairy sires for udder health traits. For this purpose, deregressed national genetic evaluations were used of Holstein milk somatic cell (SC) from...
متن کاملUsing Genomic Data to Improve Dairy Cattle Genetic Evaluations
Genomic data Genotypes for about 40,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) now act as a third source of data for national genetic evaluations of dairy cattle, in addition to phenotypes and pedigrees that were the basis of selection for the previous 100 years. Rapid developments in genotyping tools have lowered the cost of obtaining this genomic data to just over $200 per animal. The Illumina...
متن کاملNutritional Control of Feed Intake in Dairy Cattle
Feed intake is determined by many interacting factors and prediction of feed intake is the “Achilles heel” of diet formulation. Many different diet characteristics interact with environment and physiological state of cows, making it difficult to predict feed intake accurately. However, understanding the factors controlling feeding allows us to manipulate diets to optimize feed intake. Eating is...
متن کاملTest-day models for South African dairy cattle for participation in international evaluations
Variance components and breeding values of production traits and somatic cell score of South African Guernsey, Ayrshire, Holstein and Jersey breeds have been estimated using a multi-lactation repeatability test-day model, including tests of the first three lactations as repeated measures and fitting the permanent environmental effect across lactations. Multitrait evaluations were done for the p...
