Strategies to improve genomic predictions for 35 duck carcass traits in an F2 population

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2023
Background Carcass traits are crucial for broiler ducks, but carcass traits can only be measured postmortem. Genomic selection (GS) is an effective approach in animal breeding to improve selection and reduce costs.

Multiple regression analysis on carcass traits of pig carcass.

Nihon Yoton Gakkaishi, 1990
豚枝肉出荷成績の最終的目標を「平均枝肉単価」に置き, 出荷時に得られる各指標を総合的に検討するために重回帰分析の適用を試み, 平均枝肉単価を規制する要因を分析し, 次の結果を得た。1. 平均枝肉単価を構成する要因としては出荷日上物単価, 上物率, 平均枝肉重量の標準偏差の3つが説明変数として有効である。2. これらの説明変数からなる重回帰式の自由度調整済決定係数(R2)は0.967, 回帰からの標準誤差 (Se) は0.963(円) である。3. これら3つの説明変数の平均枝肉単価に対する相対的な寄与の程度を標準回帰係数により求めると, その値の高いのは出荷日上物単価 (0.833) で, 次いで上物率 (0.439), 平均枝肉重量の標準偏差 (-0.158) の順となる。したがって ...

RNA Sequencing of the Pituitary Gland and Association Analyses Reveal PRKG2 as a Candidate Gene for Growth and Carcass Traits in Chinese Ningdu Yellow Chickens

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Growth and carcass traits are of great economic importance to the chicken industry. The candidate genes and mutations associated with growth and carcass traits can be utilized to improve chicken growth.

Live animal measurements, carcass composition and plasma hormone and metabolite concentrations in male progeny of sires differing in genetic merit for beef production [PDF]

, 2009
peer-reviewedIn genetic improvement programmes for beef cattle, the effect of selecting for a given trait or index on other economically important traits, or their predictors, must be quantified to ensure no deleterious consequential effects go unnoticed.
