Facial eczema (FE) is a significant metabolic disease that affects New Zealand ruminants. Ingestion of the mycotoxin sporidesmin leads to liver and bile duct damage, which can result in photosensitisation, reduced productivity and death. Strategies u

Nitrogen (N) leached into groundwater from urine patches of cattle grazing in situ is an environmental problem in pasture-based dairy industries. One potential mitigation is to breed cattle for lower urinary nitrogen (UN) excretion. Urinary nitrogen

Multi-sire mating of a mob of ewes is commonly used in commercial sheep production systems. However, ram mating success (defined as the number of lambs sired by an individual) can vary between rams in the mating group. If this trait was repeatable an

This experiment was originally structured as a genome-wide screen for quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting resistance or susceptibility to facial eczema disease (FE), a liver mycotoxicosis. Two Finnish Landrace (F) rams were crossed to three Texel

Genetic parameters for ewes were estimated for stayability (STAY) and productive life (Prodlife). Records from 658,871 animals from 241 seed stock or ram breeder flocks and one research flock were used to estimate parameters for ram breeder flock STA

The goal was to estimate the heritabilities and genetic variances for pregnancy rate (PR) and calving date (CD) in Angus cattle along with the effect of weight, age, and sire on PR and CD. The data consisted of 4,999 records on PR and CD. Statistical

The goal was to estimate the heritabilities and genetic variances for embryo and fetal survival (ES) in sheep along with the effect of premating ewe weight, age, and bilateral or unilateral ovulation on ES. The data consisted of 11,369 records on ovu

Genetic responses of sheep and dairy cattle to the hepatic mycotoxin, sporidesmin, were reviewed. The mycotoxin can lead to clinical facial eczema (FE) in the most susceptible and severely challenged animals. The extent of hepatic injury is normally

Beef with yellow fat is considered undesirable by consumers in most European and Asian markets. β-Carotene is the major carotenoid deposited in the adipose tissue and milk fat of cattle (Bos taurus), which can result in the yellowness. The effects o
