Multiple-trait multiple country genetic evaluation of fertility traits in dairy cattle
Female fertility is one of the most economically important traits for the dairy cattle industry. Because of a few decades of selection mainly for higher milk production, many dairy farms around the world suffer from the consequences of female fertility loss. The aims of this thesis were to study the international genetic evaluation of female fertility traits, to quantify the bias of analyzing m...
متن کاملImprovement in genetic evaluation of female fertility in dairy cattle using multiple-trait models including milk production traits.
This study investigated the improvement in genetic evaluation of fertility traits by using production traits as secondary traits (MILK = 305-d milk yield, FAT = 305-d fat yield, and PROT = 305-d protein yield). Data including 471,742 records from first lactations of Denmark Holstein cows, covering the years of inseminations during first lactations from 1995 to 2004, were analyzed. Six fertility...
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...
متن کاملQuantitative trait loci affecting fertility and calving traits in Swedish dairy cattle.
Impaired fertility is the main reason for involuntary culling of dairy cows in Sweden. The objective of this study was to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) influencing fertility and calving traits in the Swedish dairy cattle population. The traits analyzed were number of inseminations, 56-d nonreturn rate, interval from calving to first insemination, fertility treatments, heat intensity score, ...
متن کاملautomatic verification of authentication protocols using genetic programming
implicit and unobserved errors and vulnerabilities issues usually arise in cryptographic protocols and especially in authentication protocols. this may enable an attacker to make serious damages to the desired system, such as having the access to or changing secret documents, interfering in bank transactions, having access to users’ accounts, or may be having the control all over the syste...
