Osteochondrosis in horses: An overview of genetic and other factors

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Osteochondrosis (OC) is a frequent manifestation of developmental orthopaedic disease, and its severe clinical presentation is known as OC dissecans (OCD). OC is defined as a disruption of the endochondral ossification process in the epiphyseal cartilage, and this disease has been reported in different mammalian species, including humans, dogs,

Applying a novel method for the analysis of beef ultimate pH in the detection of quantitative trait loci : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Animal Breeding and Genetics at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Beef ultimate pH (pHU) is an economically important trait related to meat quality. Values of pHU higher than the normal 5.5 have a detrimental effect on tenderness, colour and keeping quality. The amount of lactic acid that is produced by the conversion

The Effect of Preselection on the Level of Bias and Accuracy in a Broiler Breeder Population, a Simulation Study

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many breeding programmes have to perform preselection, as genotyping and phenotyping all potential breeder candidates is often not a feasible option. There is need to understand how preselection affects the quality of the genomic estimated breeding values (EBVs) at final selection and thereby can affect genetic progress.
