Defining appropriate model for genetic analysis of milk yield in different lactations of Iranian Holstein cows
In this study, appropriate genetic co (variance) structure across ages of milk production in the Iranian Holstein cows was modeled using 35167 records originated from 1098 sires and 27236 dams. These data were collected from 110 herds during 2011 to 2015 by the Iranian Animal Breeding Center. For all lactations, birth year, birth month, calving year, calving season, calving month, age and herd ...
متن کاملGenetic Analysis of Milk Yield in Iranian Holstein Cattle by the Test Day Model
Using monthly test day records the genetic parameters of Iranian Holstein cattle in first lactation were studied. Data of 277400 test-day milk records from 65320 cows and 2210 sires were analyzed by an animal random regression model using restricted maximum likelihood methodology. The model included herd-test-date, interaction between year-season of calving, days in milk (linear and quadratic) ...
متن کاملGenetic (Co)variance between Age from First to Third Calving and Milk Yield of Holstein Cows in the Tropics
A total of 245187 records of the first three lactations of 131126 Holstein cows in tropical conditions were used to estimate the genetic (co)variance components between age at calving and its respective milk productions. A multivariate analysis of six traits was performed. Heritability for age at calving (h2AC) and milk yield (h2MY) decrease from the ...
متن کاملBDNF Contributes to the Genetic Variance of Milk Fat Yield in German Holstein Cattle
The gene encoding the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been repeatedly associated with human obesity. As such, it could also contribute to the regulation of energy partitioning and the amount of secreted milk fat during lactation, which plays an important role in milk production in dairy cattle. Therefore, we performed an association study using estimated breeding values (EBVs) of b...
متن کاملGenetic Trends for Milk Yield, Persistency of Milk Yield,Somatic Cell Count and Calving Interval in Holstein Dairy Cows of Iran
The objective of the present study was to estimate genetic trends for lactation milk yield, persistency of milk yield, somatic cell count and interval between first and second calving in Holstein dairy cows of Iran. The dataset consisted of 210,625 test day and 25,883 first parity cows with milk yield recorded from July 2002 to September 2007 comprising 97 herds in Iran. Breeding values of anim...
