Breeding without Breeding: Is a Complete Pedigree Necessary for Efficient Breeding?

PLoS ONE, 2011
Complete pedigree information is a prerequisite for modern breeding and the ranking of parents and offspring for selection and deployment decisions. DNA fingerprinting and pedigree reconstruction can substitute for artificial matings, by allowing parentage delineation of naturally produced offspring.

The breeding program of Latxa breed [PDF]

Biotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2007
The present paper describes the breeding program of Latxa breed in Spain. Latxa?s breeding program has been on-going since 1984 and it is focused on increasing milk yield. As a consequence of its implementation, an annual genetic improvement of 3% in milk yield has obtained. Currently, new traits are being considered in the selection breeding goal.

Physiological breeding

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2016
Physiological breeding crosses parents with different complex but complementary traits to achieve cumulative gene action for yield, while selecting progeny using remote sensing, possibly in combination with genomic selection. Physiological approaches have already demonstrated significant genetic gains in Australia and several developing countries of ...

Cassava Breeding I: The Value of Breeding Value [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Breeding cassava relies on several selection stages (single row trial-SRT; preliminary; advanced; and uniform yield trials-UYT). This study uses data from 14 years of evaluations. From more than 20,000 genotypes initially evaluated only 114 reached the last stage.

Breeding and exploitation of prolific breeds in Czechoslovakia

Agricultural and Food Science, 1988
In the years 1971—1979 many experiments were conducted in order to elucidate problems of meat production increase in sheep. Ewes of native breeds (Mutton Merino = M, Improved Wallachian = I) were mated to rams of prolific breeds (Finnsheep = F, Romanov = R), producing F1 crossbred females.

Defining valid breeding goals for animal breeds

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2023
Abstract Background The objective of any valid breeding program is to increase the suitability of a breed for its future purposes. The approach most often followed in animal breeding for optimizing breeding goals assumes that the sole desire of the owners is profit maximization.

A retinoscopic survey of 333 horses and ponies in the UK [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Ophthalmic examination in the horse is generally limited to crude assessment of vision and screening for ocular lesions. The refractive state of equine eyes and the potential impact on vision and performance requires further ...
