The value of texture in berries breeding
Texture is one of the most important traits for breeding activity in berries, considering its impact on consumer appreciation and postharvest performance. Since berries are consumed as a whole fresh fruit, the knowledge about its physiological dynamic over the different phases of fruit development is a crucial aspect in order to identify the most ...

Economic values in broiler breeding
The objectives of this study were to derive economic values in broiler breeding and to determine their relationship with production circumstances. Economic values were derived using a deterministic economic model based on profit equations with a fixed amount of broiler meat output of the production system.

Designing breeding schemes suitable for smallholder livestock production systems in developing regions has hitherto been a challenge. The suggested schemes either do not address farmers’ breeding goals (centralized station-based nucleus schemes) or yield

Multibreed analysis by splitting the breeding values [PDF]
Abstract An equivalent model for multibreed variance covariance estimation is presented. It considers the additive case including or not the segregation variances. The model is based on splitting the additive genetic values in several independent parts depending on their genetic origin.

Estimated breeding values (EBVs) and genomic enhanced breeding values (GEBVs) for milk production of young genotyped Holstein bulls were predicted using a conventional BLUP - Animal Model, a method fitting regression coefficients for loci (RRBLUP), a method utilizing the realized genomic relationship matrix (GBLUP), by a single-step procedure (ssGBLUP)

FEATURES OF BREEDING VALUE INHERITANCE SIRES OF HOLSTEIN BREED
In our studies, the phenotypic manifestation of the additive form of inheritance of breeding value by milk yield (intermediate and parental dominance) was in 334 (82.2%) bulls, and non-additive form (over-dominance and regression) – in 72 (17.8%) including: over-dominance in 55 (13.5%) and regression in 17 heads (4.2%).
