Single‐Step Breeding Value Estimations and Optimum Contribution Selection in Endangered Dual‐Purpose German Black Pied Cattle (DSN) Using a Breed Specific SNP Chip

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aims of the present study were to perform single‐step genomic predictions in the dual‐purpose German Black Pied cattle (DSN) breed considering a DSN specific SNP chip (DSN_200 K), and to use the corresponding estimated breeding values (EBV) in ongoing optimum genetic contribution (OGC) selection.

Genetic Relationships Among Resilience, Fertility and Milk Production Traits in Crossbred Dairy Cows Performing in Sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Change in climate over the past years and its impact on the environment have necessitated the inclusion of resilience traits in the breeding objectives of dairy cattle. However, the relationship between resilience and other traits of economic importance in dairy production is currently not well known. This study examined the genetic parameters

Genetic Insights: Balancing Milk Yield, Fat: Protein Ratio and Fertility in Primiparous Cows From Subtropical Regions

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we aimed to evaluate the genetic association between fertility traits, milk yield and the fat: protein ratio (FPR) on the test day in primiparous Holstein cows. The analysed traits were milk yield (TDMY) and FPR assessed on the test day, as well as the following fertility traits: period from calving to first service (CFS), days ...

Study of Genetic Progress in the Context of Disconnection Between Two Originally Connected Populations

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic progress of breeding programs is highly dependent on the size of reference populations and the relatedness between reference populations and selection candidates. Many reasons can lead a population to split into several subpopulations (sanitary, physiological, political reasons, etc.).
