Pedigree information and phenotypic records are the key features in animal genetics and breeding. Otherwise best methods for genetic evaluation and estimation of parameters will be tending to no correct results. This study was aimed to investigate and verify pedigree relations among 76 individuals who were genotyped for 3 fluorescent labeled microsatellite markers picked up from FAO-ISAG joint ...

in this study the data of 2332 lambs from 815 dams and 61 sires, collected during 1993-2004 in kermani sheep breeding station were used to estimate phenotypic, genetic and environmental trends for birth weight (bw), weaning weight (ww), 6 months weight (6mw), 9 months weight (9mw) and yearling weight (yw). heritability estimates were determined for each trait using derivative free reml procedur...

This study was performed to investigate two polymorphic sites from Cyp19 gene (PvuII and MspI) and one polymorphic site from ERα gene (SnaBI) in four cattle breeds including Mazandarani, Taleshi, Sistani and Simmental. In overall 278 samples for CYP19 and 206 samples for ERα marker sites were genotyped using polymerase chain reactionsingle-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) procedure. ...
