208 Crossbred evaluations using single-step genomic BLUP and algorithm for proven and young with different sources of data [PDF]

Journal of Animal Science, 2019
Abstract Genomic selection is routinely applied to many purebred farm species but can be extended to predictions across purebreds as well as for crossbreds. This is useful for swine and poultry, for which selection in nucleus herds is typically performed on purebreds, whereas the commercial products are crossbreds.

A comparison of alternative methods to compute conditional genotype probabilities for genetic evaluation with finite locus models

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2003
An increased availability of genotypes at marker loci has prompted the development of models that include the effect of individual genes. Selection based on these models is known as marker-assisted selection (MAS). MAS is known to be efficient especially

Venous blood lactate concentration as a predictor of intestinal viability in horses with acquired indirect inguinal hernia

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acquired indirect inguinal hernia represents a life‐threatening emergency. Therapeutic decision‐making largely depends on intestinal viability, for which specific predictive parameters (such as venous lactate) have not been evaluated.

Systemic bio‐inequity links poverty to biodiversity and induces a conservation paradox

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity is declining globally while inequity is growing, and poverty rates are not improving. Global sustainable development and conservation initiatives aim to address biodiversity loss and poverty simultaneously. Through text analysis of global biodiversity policies, we identified a consistent narrative that countries with high ...

High‐throughput phenotyping for the prediction and quantification of flower‐related traits in sugarcane

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.), a C4 plant, is a vital renewable biofuel and sugar source for industries worldwide. However, synchronizing flowering between parental lines often poses challenges for breeders, hindering effective crossbreeding efforts.

The inheritance of fibre traits in a crossbred population of cashmere goats

, 1996
Genetic parameters were calculated for fibre traits measured on patch samples taken at 5 months of age on a crossbred population of cashmere goats, comprising goats of Scottish feral, Icelandic, Tasmanian, New Zealand and Siberian origin.
