Selection intensity and generation interval were evaluated in a Hereford cattle herd made up of 14 inbred lines and 14 linecross groups corresponding to the lines of inbred sires at the Suan Juan Basin Research Center, Hesperus, Colorado. Selection i

Data from 14 inbred lines and 14 linecross groups of Hereford cattled at the San Juan Basin Research Centre, Hesperus, were used to evaluate expected and realized response in birth and weapling fraits and post weaning traits in males and females over

An algorithm for estimating variance components (Method R) based on the linear regression coefficient (R) of recent (more accurate) on previous (less accurate) individual genetic predictions is presented. The previous prediction is obtained by analyz

The theoretical development of a procedure to detect bias in genetic predictions is presented. The procedure is based on the expectation of three statistics. These statistics detect bias by identifying systematic, unexpected change in subsequent anal

Information on mature weight, hip height, and body condition score from Angus cows was analyzed to estimate variance components and compare prediction models. Observations from repeated measures were analyzed with animal models with or without condit

A primary objective of this study was to determine whether the binary traits heifer pregnancy (HP) and subsequent rebreeding (SR) were heritable in an experimental population of Angus cattle. A second objective was to determine the nature of the addi

Significant genetic variation exists within and between breeds of beef cattle for age at puberty (AP). In general, faster-gaining breed groups of larger mature size reach puberty at a later age than do slower-gaining breed groups of smaller mature si

Coefficients of inbreeding are commonly used in mixed-model methods for forming inverses of Wright's numerator relationship matrix and transformation matrices used in variance component estimation and national cattle evaluation. Computation of exact

Performance records on 41,184 Red Angus cattle were analyzed and estimates of parameters calculated for absolute growth rate, relative growth rate and restricted selection indices. Heritability estimates for birth weight, 205-d weight, 365-d weight a
