in the present study, to estimate genetic parameters and genetic and phenotypic trends in holstein dairy cows in the north of iran, the records from first lactation of 11398 collected from 1989 to 2006 were used. records were collected from 290 herds. productive traits were 305 day-2x adjusted milk and fat yield and reproductive traits were age at first calving, calving interval and dry days. g...

black bengal goat is the heritage and one of the potential genetic resources of bangladesh. genetic and phenotypic parameters for semen characteristics and their relationships with scrotal circumference in black bengal bucks were estimated in this experiment. genetic parameters were estimated by residual maximum likelihood procedure, fitting an animal model ignoring maternal genetic or permanen...

the objective of this study was to estimate variance components, genetic and phenotypic trends for somatic cell score. dataset that collected by the animal breeding center of iran was used in this study. data file included 850,729 test day records of somatic cell counts (scc)  on 32,955 cows from lactations one to four, in 472 herds, gathered from years 2002 to 2013 in iran. a test day repeatab...

grapevine is one of the very important fruit crops in iran the fruit of which is used as table grape and/or raisins. in this study, some genetic parameters (phenotypic and genetic correlation, heritability and repeatability), of some important traits in table grape (date of ripening, weight, length and width of berry as well as attachment to cluster strength) were evaluated. results showed high...

productive and reproductive traits have great importance in international dairy cattle breeding objectives. production, reproduction (days open and calving interval) and pedigree data of iranian holstein dairy cattles were collected between 2002 and 2012 from 47 herds in isfahan province. the data set consisted of 30179 records from 18837 registered iranianholstein dairy cattles. single trait r...

the genetic parameters for milk production and milk fat traits for first to third parities were estimated using single, multi trait and repeatability models. the genetic parameters for test day milk records were also estimated using random regression model. the test day records and 305 day milk records of 17055 cows from 10 herds collected between years 1996-2007 in khorasan razavi province wer...

Black Bengal goat is the heritage and one of the potential genetic resources of Bangladesh. Genetic and phenotypic parameters for semen characteristics and their relationships with scrotal circumference in Black Bengal bucks were estimated in this experiment. Genetic parameters were estimated by residual maximum likelihood procedure, fitting an animal model ignoring maternal genetic or permanen...

to estimate heritability and genetic trend for 305-d milk production and lactation persistency, a total of 130,668 monthly test day milk yields belonging to 15,183 first lactation holstein cows in 131 herds and calved from 2000 to 2009 were used. to calculate 305-d milk yield as well as lactation persistency, estimated parameters of wilmink’s exponential function were applied. the parameters of...
