Genetic Evaluation of Reproductive Traits of Ethiopian Sheep Breeds Under Community‐Based Breeding Programmes

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 1, Page 105-118, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The evaluation of breeding schemes against established objectives and selection traits is essential for assessing the performance, outputs, and overall impacts of breeding programmes.

Influence of ewe metabolic status on failure of passive transfer of immunity and lamb production in a UK lowland flock

Veterinary Record, Volume 197, Issue 12, Page e297-e310, 13-27 December 2025.
Abstract Background Inadequate ewe nutrition is an important driver for neonatal lamb losses, although the association of ewe metabolic status with lamb passive transfer status is poorly understood. This study investigates the relationship between ewe metabolic status, neonatal lamb losses, failure of passive transfer of immunity (FPTI) and lamb growth.
