an estimation of discounted genetic expressions of dairy traits in iranian holstein herds
نویسندگان
چکیده
the objective of this study was to assess the discounted genetic expressions (dges) for different categories of animal traits as regards holstein cattle of iran. using discounted gene-flow principles, dges per calf born were estimated for self replacing females and also for their sires. in the situation for sires of self replacing females, relative gdes per cow per year for annual cow traits, traits of the calf at birth and slaughter, traits of heifer and traits of cow at culling were estimated as 1, 0.96, 0.4, 0.44 and 0.43, respectively. the respective values for self replacing females were 1, 0.5, 0.21, 0.44 and 0.43, respectively. the effects of different factors on dges were quantified using sensitivity analysis. results obtained in this study provide important information for properly weighting the traits in national selection indexes and as well in conducting cost- benefit analyses of breeding strategies.

Estimation of Genetic Parameters for Lactation Curve Traits in Holstein Dairy Cows in Iran
The objectives were to estimate (co)variance components and genetic parameters for lactation curve traits in Holstein dairy cows in Iran. The used data were records on Holstein cows collected during January 2003 to December 2012 by the Animal Breeding Center of Iran (Karaj, Iran). In order to describe the lactation curve, an incomplete gamma function was fitted to 691200 test-day records on 962...

In this study test-day records of milk (kg), fat (g), and protein (g) yields, somatic cell score (SCS, cells/ML) collected by Animal Breeding Center of Iran during 2007 and 2009 were used to estimate genetic parameters using random regression model. Models with different order of Legendre polynomials were compared using Bayesian information criterion (BIC).For milk, fat yield and SCS genetic an...
متن کاملEstimation of Economic Values for Fertility, Stillbirth and Milk Production Traits in Iranian Holstein Dairy Cows
The objective of present study was to derive the economic values for number of inseminations to conception, calving interval, milk yield and stillbirth, using economic data of 10 Iranian Holstein herds. The economic values were derived by using the profit function methods and differentiating a profit equation with respect to the traits of interest. The cow fertility costs herd amortization or r...

This study was conducted to estimate the additive genetic components of calf mortality in the first month of age, calving difficulty, and birth weight in Holstein dairy cows in the central regions of Iran. The records comprised 61,200 calves born between 1990 and 2011 from 60 dairy herds. Different threshold-linear models in three groups of univariate, bivariate, and multivariate models were us...
