grapevine is one of the very important fruit crops in iran the fruit of which is used as table grape and/or raisins. in this study, some genetic parameters (phenotypic and genetic correlation, heritability and repeatability), of some important traits in table grape (date of ripening, weight, length and width of berry as well as attachment to cluster strength) were evaluated. results showed high...

genetic parameters and trends for milk and fat yields as well as for fat percentage were estimated from 35,438 milk production records (305d, 2x) of 17,971 holstein dairy cattle in 133 herds during the period of 1990-2003 in khorasan province. variance components were estimated using restricted maximum likelihood statistical method applying univariate and repeatability animal models. for the un...

the milk and milk fat production records of 28 holstein herds in khorasan razavi province were analyzed in this study. the records were based on 305 days of milking and were from the first to third milking periods and two times milking per day. the fixed effects of herd-year-season and age of dam at parturition as covariate were fitted in the models of analyses. the (co)variance components were...

dairy cattle breeding programs have been based in the selection for traits related to milk production. in this research a data set of 63 herds of east azerbaijan province holstein cattle, collected during 2002-2013 by the iranian animal breeding center was used to estimate the repeatability and heritability of three traits of economic importance. genetic parameters for first three lactations of...

the present research was designed to examine the genetic analysis of egg weight, egg yolk weight and egg albumen weight of bovan neva black laying hens at 25, 51 and 72 weeks. for this purpose, thirty birds were selected from the layer flock in the babcock university teaching and research farm. they were individually housed in separate labeled battery cage. a total of thirty eggs were collected...

the objective of this study was to estimate variance components, genetic and phenotypic trends for somatic cell score. dataset that collected by the animal breeding center of iran was used in this study. data file included 850,729 test day records of somatic cell counts (scc)  on 32,955 cows from lactations one to four, in 472 herds, gathered from years 2002 to 2013 in iran. a test day repeatab...
