Differences among methods to validate genomic evaluations for dairy cattle.
Two methods of testing predictions from genomic evaluations were investigated. Data used were from the August 2006 and April 2010 official USDA genetic evaluations of dairy cattle. The training data set consisted of both cows and bulls that were proven (had own or daughter information) as of August 2006 and included 8,022, 1,959, and 1,056 Holsteins, Jerseys, and Brown Swiss, respectively. The ...
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 کاملInvited review: Genomic selection in dairy cattle: progress and challenges.
A new technology called genomic selection is revolutionizing dairy cattle breeding. Genomic selection refers to selection decisions based on genomic breeding values (GEBV). The GEBV are calculated as the sum of the effects of dense genetic markers, or haplotypes of these markers, across the entire genome, thereby potentially capturing all the quantitative trait loci (QTL) that contribute to var...
متن کاملIntegrating genomic selection into dairy cattle breeding programmes: a review.
Extensive genetic progress has been achieved in dairy cattle populations on many traits of economic importance because of efficient breeding programmes. Success of these programmes has relied on progeny testing of the best young males to accurately assess their genetic merit and hence their potential for breeding. Over the last few years, the integration of dense genomic information into statis...

Mark, T. 2005. International Genetic Evaluations for Udder Health Traits in Dairy Cattle. Doctoral dissertation. 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...
