Estimates of daughter fertility were computed using first artificial insemination (AI) breedings reported to the US Dairy Herd Improvement Association (DHIA) from 1995 through 1997. An animal model was used to compute estimated breeding values (EBV)

Objectives of this study were to investigate changes in predicted transmitting abilities (PTA) of yields from evaluations based on first records to evaluations based on first and later records of daughters and determine whether these changes are heri

The objectives of this study were to predict most recent evaluations of young bulls entering artificial insemination (AI) sampling programs from pedigree information available at time of sampling and investigate whether prediction equations differ am

Trends in average days open and services per conception from 1976 to 1999 were examined in 532 Holstein and 29 Jersey herds from 10 Southeastern states. Three-year averages for eight intervals (time) were calculated (first: 1976 to 1978; eighth: 1997

Animal model methodology was used to compute yearly measures of relative fertility of Holstein AI mating bulls based upon 70-d nonreturn of first breedings as reported to U.S. DHIA from 1988 through 1997. Estimated Relative Conception Rates (ERCR) we

The main objective of this study was to estimate genetic trends for 3.7% FCM, fat yield, days open, and predicted body weight after calving in six experimental dairy herds owned by the State Farm Division of the North Carolina Department of Agricultu

Three Holstein lines, were compared, based on different methods of sire selection, for genetic change in 3.7% FCM, fat yield, days open, and predicted body weight after calving. The three lines were 1) evaluated sires selected only for 3.7% FCM (milk

A mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fragment containing the D-loop, phenylalanine tRNA, valine tRNA, and 12S and 16 rRNA genes was cloned and sequenced from 36 cows of 18 maternal lineages to identify the polymorphic sites within those regions and to detect

Two independent data files from the breeding herd of Iowa State University and six North Carolina herds were used to examine relationships between yield traits and mtDNA polymorphism. Maternal lineages were established by tracing ancestry of cows to

First lactation records of 1538 buffalo maintained at the Animal Production Research Institute farms in 1967 to 1990 were used to determine lactation curves for three lactation lengths: >28 and 149 d, and ≥308 d, as well as all records. Daily milk
