[ 1 ] - Prediction of breeding values for the milk production trait in Iranian Holstein cows applying artificial neural networks
The artificial neural networks, the learning algorithms and mathematical models mimicking the information processing ability of human brain can be used non-linear and complex data. The aim of this study was to predict the breeding values for milk production trait in Iranian Holstein cows applying artificial neural networks. Data on 35167 Iranian Holstein cows recorded between 1998 to 2009 were ...
[ 2 ] - Association of the melanocortin-3(MC3R) receptor gene with growth and reproductive traits in Mazandaran indigenous chicken
Melanocortin-3 receptor (MC3R) plays an important role in the central control of energy homeostasis, and several functional polymorphisms of this gene have been detected. We have studied MC3R as a candidate gene responsible for variation in economically important traits in chicken. To determine the association between MC3R polymorphism and phenotypic variation, a total of 190 individuals from b...
[ 3 ] - Association of PIT1 gene and milk protein percentage in Holstein cattle
The pituitary-specific transcription factor (PIT-1) gene is a candidate gene for growth, carcass and also for milk yield traits. In dairy farm animals, the main goal of the selection is the improvement of milk yield and composition. The genes of milk proteins and hormones are excellent candidate genes for linkage analysis with quantitative trait loci (QTL) because of their biological significan...
[ 4 ] - تنوع آللی ژن کالپاستاتین در گوسفند سنجابی
تولید گوشت ترد که مطلوب مصرف کنندگان باشد یکی از مسائل مهم در صنعت پرورش گوسفند است. لذا، مطالعه سازکارهای بیوشیمیایی تجزیه ماهیچه در سطح مولکولی ضروری است. کالپاستاتین یک مهار کننده داخلی است و نقش اصلی را در تنظیم فعالیت کالپاین در سلولها ایفاء می کند. گوسفند سنجابی یک حیوان مهم تولید کننده گوشت در استان کرمانشاه است که با نشانگرهای مولکولی، به ویژه از نظر ژن کالپاستاتین مورد مطالعه قرار نگرف...
[ 5 ] - نقشه‌یابی جایگاه‌های ژنی مرتبط با وزن بدن روی کروموزوم شماره 5 در یک جمعیت F2 بلدرچین ژاپنی
The purpose of this work was to scan chromosome 5 for mapping QTL affecting live weight in an F2 population. A three generation resource population was developed by using two distinct Japanese quail strains, wild and white to map quantitative trait loci underlying hatching weight and growth traits. Eight pairs of white (S) and wild (W) birds were crossed reciprocally and 34 F1 birds were produ...
