Considerations for Improving Feed Efficiency in Dairy Cattle
Intensive selection of sires is possible by using artificial insemination; coupled with accurate measurement of a potential sire’s genetic value, this has markedly improved genetics for easily measured traits like milk production and type traits. Increased milk production has in turn increased gross feed efficiency through dilution of maintenance. Additional genetic gains in feed efficiency wou...
متن کاملVariation of somatic cell count (SCC) of dairy cattle in conditions of Mediterranean region in Croatia
With the aim of analysis the variability of somatic cell count (SCC) of dairy cattle in conditions of Mediterranean region in Croatia, 217,509 test-day records, collected from January 2005 until April 2010, were extracted from HPA (Croatian Agricultural Agency) database. Milk recording in Croatia occurs according to the AT4 milk recording method. Somatic cell count (SCC) in milk samples taken f...
متن کاملExogenous melatonin reduces somatic cell count of milk in Holstein cows
High somatic cell counts in milk caused by mastitis significantly influence the quality of milk and result in substantial annual economic loss. This study evaluated the beneficial effects of melatonin (MT) on milk somatic cell count (SCC) in cows. To examine the effects of melatonin on SCC, one hundred twenty cows were divided into four groups based on milk SCC. In each group, half of the cows ...

متن کاملEstimation of genetic parameters for production traits and somatic cell score in Iranian Holstein dairy cattle using random regression model
In this study test-day records of milk (kg), fat (g), and protein (g) yields, somatic cell score (SCS, cells/ML) collected by Animal Breeding Center of Iran during 2007 and 2009 were used to estimate genetic parameters using random regression model. Models with different order of Legendre polynomials were compared using Bayesian information criterion (BIC).For milk, fat yield and SCS genetic an...
