Genomic Analysis of Milk Protein Fractions in Brown Swiss Cattle

Animals, 2020
Depending on whether milk protein fractions are evaluated qualitatively or quantitatively, different genetic outcomes may emerge. In this study, we compared the genetic parameters for the major milk protein fractions—caseins (αS1-, αS2-, &

Estimation of heritability and genetic correlations between milk yield and linear type traits in primiparous Holstein-Friesian cows

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2021
Estimation of genetic variability and genetic correlations between production traits (milk yield, fat yield, fat content, protein yield, and protein content) and selected type traits (angularity, fore udder height, rear udder height, front teat placement,

Genetic Parameters and the Impact of Off-Types for Theobroma cacao L. in a Breeding Program in Brazil

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Breeding programs of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) trees share the many challenges of breeding long-living perennial crops, and genetic progress is further constrained by both the limited understanding of the inheritance of complex traits and the prevalence

Genetic parameters of resistance to Vibrio aestuarianus, and OsHV-1 infections in the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, at three different life stages

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2017
In France, two main diseases threaten Pacific oyster production. Since 2008, Crassostrea gigas spat have suffered massive losses due to the ostreid herpesvirus OsHV-1, and since 2012, significant mortalities in commercial-size adults have been related to

Selection of early lima bean lines for grain yield

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical
The scarcity of improved lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) cultivars in Brazil has made it difficult to reach new production levels. This study aimed to select early and high-yielding lima bean lines with commercially desirable seed traits.

Genetic parameters of white striping in relation to body weight, carcass composition, and meat quality traits in two broiler lines divergently selected for the ultimate pH of the pectoralis major muscle

BMC Genetics, 2016
BackgroundWhite striping (WS) is an emerging quality defect with adverse consequences for the sensorial, technological, and nutritional qualities of breast meat in broiler chickens. The genetic determinism of this defect is little understood and thus the
