Abstract excerpt

Genetic changes and genetic drift in three small closed dairy cattle populations were examined with a stochastic simulation model. Multiple ovulation and embryo transfer and AI techniques were simulated in three populations, two with 88 breeding females each and one with 352 breeding females. The...
