Selection and Breeding of Cattle and Buffalo in Asia: Strategies and Criteria for Improved Breeding | IAEA

A modified version of the Pryce method [ 18 ] that accounts for the economic effects of recessive condi- tions was developed and compared with random mat- ing, truncation

The across-breed-prediction approach was followed by the Australian Beef Coop- erative Research Center (www.beefcrc.com, Beef CRC), which derived PE on a pooled training population

Accuracy of genomic predictions of breeding values was evaluated by using a 5-fold cross-validation scheme and considering three models: Bayesian ridge regression (BRR), Bayes C

When different schemes are compared at a constant number of offspring born per year, improved success rates do not increase progress, since selection intensities and

Here, we estimate the additive genetic variance in host susceptibility, host infectivity, and R 0 for the endemic claw disease digital dermatitis (DD) in Holstein Friesian

15 Number of significant (at the genome‑wise false discovery rate of 5%) SNPs that have a pleiotropic effect on calving performance and body conformation traits using the

The realized selection differential was significant for six traits in AF4_31Ga (i.e. attractiveness, fruit cropping, fruit size, per cent of russet, over-colour and per
