the objective of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters and genetic trends of growth traits , fleece weight and reproductive traits. data collected from 1993 to 2007 by the kermani breeding station were analyzed .traits were included birth weight (bw, n=2614), 3 months weight (3mw,n=2312), 6 months weight (6mw, n=1890), 9 months weight (9mw,n=1380) and 12 months weight (12mw,n=105...

in this study the data of 2332 lambs from 815 dams and 61 sires, collected during 1993-2004 in kermani sheep breeding station were used to estimate phenotypic, genetic and environmental trends for birth weight (bw), weaning weight (ww), 6 months weight (6mw), 9 months weight (9mw) and yearling weight (yw). heritability estimates were determined for each trait using derivative free reml procedur...

The aim of the present study was to estimate the genetic parameters and genetic trends of somatic cell score (SCS) in the first 3 lactations of Iranian Holstein cows by random regression (RR) animal model by using Restricted Maximum Likelihood (REML) method. The data set used in this analysis included observations of 340318 test-day records of 41526 cows in 288 herds; 89969 test-day of 11750 co...

This article reports data concerning the Internet-related activities and interest for Ironman Triathlon competition. Google Trends (GT) was used and mined from 2004 onwards. The interest for Ironman Triathlon was found to be cyclic over time. The Triathlon-related Internet activities negatively correlated with the number of finishers per year (Pearson׳s correlation r=-0.690, p-value<0.05), whil...

BACKGROUND We explored racial/ethnic differences in perceived cancer risk and determinants of these differences in a nationally representative sample of whites, blacks, Hispanics, and Asians. METHODS Multiple regression techniques, including mediational analyses, were used to identify determinants and quantify racial/ethnic differences in the perception of the risk of developing cancer among ...

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...

The Standard Model does not provide a very good fit to the most recent precision electroweak data from LEP, due primarily to the observed branching ratios for Z decay to bb̄ and cc̄. The possibility that an extension of the Standard Model with low-energy supersymmetry can improve the agreement between data and theory is considered. Invited Talk at the 1995 International Europhysics Conference on ...
