Hot topic: Definition and implementation of a breeding value for feed efficiency in dairy cows.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Oct 2015

Pryce J E, Gonzalez-Recio O, Nieuwhof G, Wales W J, Coffey M P, Hayes B J, Goddard M E

Abstract excerpt

A new breeding value that combines the amount of feed saved through improved metabolic efficiency with predicted maintenance requirements is described. The breeding value includes a genomic component for residual feed intake (RFI) combined with maintenance requirements calculated from either a genomic or pedigree estimated breeding value (EBV) for body weight (BW) predicted using conformation traits. Residual...
