Evaluation of genetic trend in milk production of buffalo cattle in Colombia
Revista Científica, 2023 Assessing genetic trends in livestock is pivotal for comprehending how populations have evolved over time. This provides valuable insights into the direction and magnitude of genetic change, which is crucial for evaluating the outcomes of selection ...

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2022 Background Genomic selection has revolutionized genetic improvement in animals and plants, but little is known about its long-term effects. Here, we investigated the long-term effects of genomic selection on response to selection, genetic variance, and ...

Oracle selection provides insight into how far off practice is from Utopia in plant breeding
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Since the introduction of genomic selection in plant breeding, high genetic gains have been realized in different plant breeding programs. Various methods based on genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs) for selecting parental lines that maximize the ...

Genetic Selection and Conservation of Genetic Diversity* [PDF]
Reproduction in Domestic Animals, 2012 ContentsFor 100s of years, livestock producers have employed various types of selection to alter livestock populations. Current selection strategies are little different, except our technologies for selection have become more powerful. Genetic resources at the breed level have been in and out of favour over time.

GENETIC SELECTION | Evaluation and Methods [PDF]
, 2002 The ultimate goal of animal selection is to create a new generation of animals that are superior to the current population. Superior is interpreted broadly to include functionality of animals, cost reduction of production, consumer perception, quality of products, and reduced environmental impact.

Genetic selection strategies–population genetics
Poultry Science, 1997 This paper provides an overview of the association between population genetics and selection strategies in poultry. Relationships between artificial and natural selection and among causes contributing to limits to artificial selection are discussed.

Strategies Using Genomic Selection to Increase Genetic Gain in Breeding Programs for Wheat
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Conventional wheat-breeding programs involve crossing parental lines and subsequent selfing of the offspring for several generations to obtain inbred lines. Such a breeding program takes more than 8 years to develop a variety.
