ABSTRACT This study evaluated the influence of variance component (VC) estimates, obtained from different models and two relationship matrices, pedigree‐based (BLUP) and genomic information‐based (ssGBLUP), on genomic predictions of carcass traits in Montana composite cattle.

Segregation between a genetic marker and a locus influencing a quantitative trait in a well delineated population is the basis for success in mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL). To detect bovine chromosome 5 (BTA5) birth weight QTL we genotyped 294 F2

Ascertainment Bias in Cattle SNP Arrays and Implications for Multibreed Genomic Predictions
ABSTRACT Ascertainment bias of SNP for genotyping arrays, where markers are discovered largely in one breed then used to genotype other breeds, can affect scaling and dispersion of genomic breeding values in multibreed genomic evaluations. Detecting and addressing this bias is crucial for robust genetic analyses.

Genomic Variants Associated With Oocyte and Embryo Production in Dairy Gir Cattle
ABSTRACT The use of in vitro fertilization protocols associated with genomic selection increases genetic gain in dairy cattle. The aims of this study were to uncover genetic variants in a specific interval on BTA7 and to investigate their effects on the number of oocytes and embryos in dairy Gir.

Data were analyzed to compare crossbred females produced by crossing exotic Angus and Red Poll males to indigenous Ankole, Boran and Small East African Zebu (Zebu) females with straightbred females of the Ankole, Boran and Zebu breeds at the Ruhengere Field Station in the Ankole District of Southwestern Uganda. Progeny of the straightbred and crossbred

Dietary management is an important factor affecting the health and survival of critically endangered wildlife. The natural habitat showed a significant seasonal difference which was also higher than in introduced habitat. Reintroduced banteng exhibit dietary flexibility and adaptability to different natural habitats.

Wolf Presence Disrupts Seasonal Variation in Hair Cortisol Among Free‐Ranging Beef Cattle
Predators exert indirect effects on prey populations beyond direct predation, but how predator reintroduction restructures prey physiology remains poorly understood. Using hair cortisol analysis in cattle exposed versus unexposed to wolves, we found that wolf presence disrupted normal seasonal cortisol regulation patterns.

Prediction of mortality and conception rates of beef breeding cattle in northern Australia [PDF]
In current simulation packages for the management of extensive beef-cattle enterprises, the relationships for the key biological rates (namely conception and mortality) are quite rudimentary.
