Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Finnish Ayrshire cattle belong to the Nordic Red breeds. The basis of selection in Nordic Red breeds shifted from traditional pedigree‐based breeding values to genomic breeding values between 2011 and 2014. Joint genetic evaluation and admixture among the Nordic Red breeds have led to the formation of a composite Nordic Red population ...

Evaluating Selection Strategies Based on Inbreeding Load via Simulation
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Inbreeding load is the fraction of the mutation load that is due to recessive action of mutations. This load is only expressed in individual's inbred offspring. As such, inbreeding load contributes to genetic heterogeneity among individuals and can thus be used as a criterion of selection.

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Current research on family business innovation tends to isolate individual tensions for analysis, while in reality, these tensions often arise in complex entanglements. To fill this research void, we focus on understanding how multiple tensions occur in the innovation process, how these tensions are entangled, and how they are managed. We turn

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study hypothesises that a high‐starch (HS) diet during the last month of gestation enhances colostrum yield and composition as well as the dam and goat kid metabolism, immune status and performance. Thirty multiparous and pregnant Majorera dairy goats were randomly assigned to a prepartum dietary treatment (CON vs.

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aflatoxins, toxic metabolites produced by Aspergillus species, are frequently reported contaminants of dairy cattle feed worldwide, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions where climatic conditions favor fungal growth, and they can be transferred into milk and dairy products.

GRAZING SYSTEMS ON DAIRY AND SHEEP FARMS
Proceedings of the New Zealand Grassland Association, 1968 THE PURPOSE of this paper is to deal with current grazing methods as practised on high-producing dairy and sheep farms. While an attempt will be made to give a general picture of the situation in New Zealand, Northland experience will be heavily drawn on for several reasons. Northland has given the highest yearly pasture production ever recorded in New

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Reproduction places considerable metabolic demands on females, particularly during pregnancy and lactation, when calcium homeostasis and bone metabolism are challenged. Urinary C‐terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX‐I) offers a useful non‐invasive marker to assess bone resorption.
