چکیده
in this research, 6517 records, collected by khojir sheep breeding station (tehran, iran), during 1991 to 2011 were used to estimate genetic parameters of lamb survival in zandi sheep. genetic parameters were estimated using 16 different models of animal model, sire and threshold models using reml procedures. the aic criterion was used to evaluate the models. the effects in the most suitable animal model were included direct additive genetic, maternal additive genetic and permanent environmental effects. the effects in the most suitable sire model were included sire additive genetic effects and maternal common litter effects. the effects in the most suitable threshold model were included only sire additive genetic effect. the estimated heritability of lamb survival based on animal, sire, and threshold models were 0.09 ± 0.001 and 0.13 ± 0.02, and 0.19 ± 0.06, respectively.

The present study was performed to study the effect of inbreeding on the pre-weaning growth traits including the birth weight (BW), weaning weight (WW), average daily gain (ADG), Kleiber ratio (KR) and lamb survival from birth to weaning (SUR) in Baluchi, Iran-Black and Zandi sheep. Significant positive inbreeding trends were found only for Baluchi and Iran-Black breeds as 0.038 and 0.278, resp...
