Estimation of genetic parameters for production, composition and processability of milk from dairy sheep in a New Zealand flock

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1107-1124, October 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper aimed to estimate the heritability and genetic correlations for processability (milk coagulation properties, cheese yield, and heat stability), milk production, and milk composition of dairy sheep in a New Zealand flock. Test‐day records from 169 ewes were obtained during the 2021–2022 season. Heritability estimates for yield traits

Effect of subdivision of the Lacaune dairy sheep breed on the accuracy of genomic prediction

Journal of Dairy Science, 2023
: Genomic selection was deployed in Lacaune dairy breed in 2015. Lacaune population split in 1972 into 2 breeding companies with associated flocks, and there have been very few exchanges of animals between the subpopulations, leading to divergence of the

Benefit of including female genotypes in the Lacaune dairy sheep reference population

Journal of Dairy Science
: Breeding programs for Lacaune dairy sheep adopted genomic selection in 2015. Genomic predictions for young male candidates are based on a reference population of more than 10,000 artificial insemination rams born since the early 2000s.

Genomic selection strategies for the German Merino sheep breeding programme – A simulation study

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 3, Page 251-262, May 2025.
Abstract Genomic selection is widely implemented in livestock breeding programmes across species. Its potential is also evident for sheep breeding; however, it has several limitations, particularly because of the high genetic diversity across and within sheep breeds. In Germany, the predominant sheep breed is the Merino sheep. Until now, there has been

Genetic parameters of lamb leather and wool traits in Lacaune dairy sheep

Animal
Lacaune lamb skins are well known for their high quality and are widely used in the leather industry and luxury ready-to-wear fashion. However, in France, the quality of this leather has declined over recent decades, primarily due to two major defects ...

Listeriose em rebanho de ovinos leiteiros na região serrana do Rio Grande do Sul: relato de caso Listeriosis in a dairy sheep herd in Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil: case report

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2006
Relatam-se dois casos de listeriose ocorridos em ovinos leiteiros da raça Lacaune, mantidos em confinamento e alimentados com silagem de milho. O exame histológico do tecido nervoso mostrou meningoencefalite supurada, e a imunoistoquímica foi positiva ...

Subclinical hypocalcemia in primiparous lacaune ewes

OBSERVATÓRIO DE LA ECONOMÍA LATINOAMERICANA
Peripartum in sheep is a critical period of high nutritional demand, as the animal's body undergoes several physiological changes due to the high energy expenditure for the development of one or more fetuses and for maintenance, and metabolic disturbances can occur.
