Genetic Parameter Estimation for Pregnancy Loss and Their Association With Reproductive and Growth Traits in Brahman Cattle Under Extensive Tropical Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study estimated genetic parameters for pregnancy loss (PL) in Brahman cattle and evaluated the genetic correlation of PL with growth and reproductive traits using both the pedigree relationship matrix (A) and pedigree plus genomic relationship matrix (H). Data were collected from two herds in Bolivia, focusing on three age groups: heifers,

Application of Genomic Random Regression Models for Genetic Parameter Estimations of Female Fertility Traits in Different Parities in German Holsteins

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of the present study was to infer genetic (co) variance components and to estimate parity‐specific breeding values for the female fertility traits non‐return rate after 56 days, the interval from calving to first service and days open by applying random regression models on a time‐dependent parity scale. In this regard, we considered a

Genetic Evaluation of Beef Sires Using a Beef‐on‐Dairy Crossbred Reference Population

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, Beef‐on‐Dairy (BoD) crossbreeding programs have gained momentum to enhance dairy cattle's economic and genetic merits while meeting the demand for high‐quality beef. However, bulls with superior growth potential can lead to calving problems; thus, Holstein dairy farmers must decide which semen to use to avoid calving problems ...

Genetic Parameters for Novel Feedlot Profitability‐Related Traits in Nelore Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to estimate (co)variance components and genetic parameters for accumulated profitability (AFP) and profit per kilogram of liveweight gain (PFT), and their relationships with weight at 450 days of age (W450), scrotal circumference at 365 days of age (SC365), age at first calving (AFC), probability of precocious calving at 30 ...

Impact of Model Parameterisation and Variance Component Estimates on Genomic Predictions of Carcass Traits in Montana Composite Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the influence of variance component (VC) estimates, obtained from different models and two relationship matrices, pedigree‐based (BLUP) and genomic information‐based (ssGBLUP), on genomic predictions of carcass traits in Montana composite cattle.

Genomic Prediction Ability Using Linear and Threshold Approaches for Different Stayability Definitions in Nellore Females

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enhancing female longevity through regular calvings improves herd replacement rates and reduces the costs associated with replacing low reproductive efficiency animals. Stayability (STAY), defined as a cow's ability to remain productive in the herd, is a categorical trait that challenges traditional genetic evaluation due to its non‐normal ...
