Frequently Asked Questions (9)
Q2. What future works have the authors mentioned in the paper "The effect of breeding region and year on milk traits of simmental bull dams" ?
In future breeding-selection work attempt should be made to select bull dams, as well as breeding bulls, based on breeding value calculated by the main breeding organization – on the basis of milk performance data and exterior ( linear scoring ).
Q3. What is the main purpose of this paper?
The Authors believe that results obtained indicate justification for use of linear methods, i.e. correction of systematic conditions of the environment.
Q4. How should the breeding organization select bulls?
In future breeding-selection work attempt should be made to select bull dams, as well as breeding bulls, based on breeding value calculated by the main breeding organization – on the basis of milk performance data and exterior (linear scoring).
Q5. What are the main factors influencing the production of milk?
Selection is based on origin, production performance (quantity of milk, milk fat and protein content), milking/dairy traits, reproductive indicators, exterior and linear type scores.
Q6. What was the method used to determine the effect of the genetic factors on milk traits?
Analysis of the effect of paragenetic factors on studied milk traits was done using the method of least squares, fixed model:Yijlm = μ + Ri +
Q7. How many cows were produced using least squares average?
Using the method of least squares average values were obtained: milk production – 5754.49 kg, milk fat content – 3.98% and quantity of milk fat – 230.24 kg.
Q8. What was the effect of the region, year of exhibition and lactation groups on milk traits?
Analysis of variance showed that the region, year of exhibition and lactation groups had significant effect (P<0.05) on all investigated milk traits.
Q9. How many days did the researchers lactate the cows?
The effect of breeding region ...289- milk production, kg - content of milk fat, % - production of milk fat, kg Correction of the lactation to the standard lactation of 305 days was doneusing coefficients according to Nenadović, 1974.
