Linkage disequilibrium and persistence of phase in Holstein-Friesian, Jersey and Angus cattle.
When a genetic marker and a quantitative trait locus (QTL) are in linkage disequilibrium (LD) in one population, they may not be in LD in another population or their LD phase may be reversed. The objectives of this study were to compare the extent of LD and the persistence of LD phase across multiple cattle populations. LD measures r and r(2) were calculated for syntenic marker pairs using geno...
متن کاملExtent of linkage disequilibrium in Holstein cattle in North America.
The success of fine-scale mapping and genomic selection depends mainly on the strength of linkage disequilibrium (LD) between markers and causal mutations. With Lewontin's measure of LD (known as D'), high levels of LD that extend over several million base pairs have been reported in livestock. However, this measure of LD can be strongly biased upward by small samples and by low allele frequenc...
متن کاملReproductive Performance for Holstein Friesian × Arsi and Holstein Friesian × Boran Crossbred Cattle
The study was carried out at Agarfa ATVET College dairy farm to evaluate the reproductive performance of Holstein Friesian× Arsi and Holstein Friesian ×Boran cattle. For the study, records compiled from 1983 to 2012 at the Agarfa dairy farm were used as original data. The effects of breed, bloodlines, season and parity on the reproductive traits were evaluated. Data were analyzed using the gene...
متن کاملEstimates of genetic parameters for fertility traits of Australian Holstein-Friesian cattle
Fertility data collected on 17131 Holstein-Friesian cows from 158 dairy herds in Australia were used to estimate heritabilities for and correlations among several fertility traits using a sire model. Pregnancy rate (PR), survival (Surv), calving interval (CI), calving to first service interval (CFS), insemination rate (coded as 1 if a cow received a service or 0 otherwise) (InsemR) and first se...
متن کاملGenetic diversity and background linkage disequilibrium in the North American Holstein cattle population.
The objectives of this study were to 1) identify highly heterozygous Holstein bulls that are as unrelated as possible and widely used in the US dairy industry; 2) quantify the level of genetic diversity in US Holsteins; and 3) determine the extent of background linkage disequilibrium (BLD) and disease trait associated linkage disequilibrium (DLD) in the US Holstein population. Twenty-three Hols...
