The objective of the study was to estimate genetic trends from 1977 to 1998 in the French Large White (LW) breed for stillbirth and associated traits measured at farrowing using frozen semen. Two groups of pigs (G77 and G98) were obtained by inseminating

The objectives of this work were to estimate the genetic parameters for the traits longevity (LG) and accumulated milk yield at 305 days (MY305) using a bitrait animal model and the single-step GBLUP method and estimate the genetic gain for LG through ...

Global amphibian declines, loss of genetic diversity and fitness: a review [PDF]
It is well established that a decrease in genetic variation can lead to reduced fitness and lack of adaptability to a changing environment. Amphibians are declining on a global scale, and we present a four-point argument as to why this taxonomic group ...

Genetic evaluation of clinical mastitis traits in Holstein cattle
The results obtained from different models for predicting breeding values for clinical mastitis (CM) in Holstein cattle were compared. CM was recorded in 30 882 lactations of 12 793 cows in 8 herds from 1996 to 2016. CM was considered either as an all-or-

Abstract Five estimators of intraherd genetic trend were compared in 13,615 Holstein first lactations from 220 progeny test herds. The preferred method estimated the trend as minus twice the regression of deviated production on time of freshening within sire-herd subclasses. Estimates of annual intraherd genetic trend from this approach were 82 kg of
