Improving Genomic Prediction of Crossbred and Purebred Dairy Cattle

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
This study assessed the accuracy and bias of genomic prediction (GP) in purebred Holstein (H) and Jersey (J) as well as crossbred (H and J) validation cows using different reference sets and prediction strategies.

Genetic Aspects for Meat Quality of Purebred and Crossbred Bull-Calves

open access: yesAdvances in Animal and Veterinary Sciences, 2020
| The aim of the current study is to analyze the meat efficiency of Simmental bull-calves and their firstgeneration crosses with the red steppe and black-motley cows. For the experiment, we used semi-carcasses of purebred Simmental bull-calves (group I),

Optimizing genomic reference populations to improve crossbred performance

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2020
Background In pig and poultry breeding, the objective is to improve the performance of crossbred production animals, while selection takes place in the purebred parent lines. One way to achieve this is to use genomic prediction with a crossbred reference

Genetic diseases in purebred dogs [PDF]

open access: yesRoczniki Naukowe Zootechniki, 2021
The present study aimed at analyzing the prevalence of genetic diseases in dogs depending on the breed and drawing the attention to the breeds which are not observed to exhibit such issues. In addition, the most common problems of genetic background occurring in dogs were characterized.

Contraceptive implants used by cat breeders in France: a study of 140 purebred cats

open access: yesJournal of feline medicine and surgery, 2020
Objectives Deslorelin 4.7 mg and melatonin 18 mg subcutaneous implants were studied in purebred male and female cats, via questionnaires sent to French cat breeders, to assess breed, age, duration of the contraceptive effect, fertility after use, changes

Crossbreed or Purebred, Which Is Better?

open access: yes, 2023
The worldwide goat population has surpassed one billion individuals and there are more than 300 different goat varieties in the world, including purebred and crossbred. Presently, many studies on the characterization of local goats have been conducted to determine genetic diversity and find associations with specific traits, both for optimal ...

Comparing genomic prediction accuracy from purebred, crossbred and combined purebred and crossbred reference populations in sheep [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2014
The accuracy of genomic prediction depends largely on the number of animals with phenotypes and genotypes. In some industries, such as sheep and beef cattle, data are often available from a mixture of breeds, multiple strains within a breed or from crossbred animals.

Milk coagulation traits and cheese yields of purebred Holsteins and 4 generations of 3-breed rotational crossbred cows from Viking Red, Montbéliarde, and Holstein bulls.

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2020
Crossbreeding is a strategy to counter the declining fertility, resilience, and longevity of purebred Holstein (Ho) cows. However, little is known of the effects of long-term systematic rotational crossbreeding on milk technological properties and cheese

Animal board invited review: The purebred-crossbred genetic correlation in poultry

open access: yesAnimal, 2023
The purebred-crossbred genetic correlation (rpc) is a key parameter to determine whether the optimal selection of purebred animals to improve crossbred performance should rely on crossbred phenotypes, purebred phenotypes, or both.
