Strategies for implementing genomic selection for feed efficiency in dairy cattle breeding schemes.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Aug 2017

Wallén S E, Lillehammer M, Meuwissen T H E

Abstract excerpt

Alternative genomic selection and traditional BLUP breeding schemes were compared for the genetic improvement of feed efficiency in simulated Norwegian Red dairy cattle populations. The change in genetic gain over time and achievable selection accuracy were studied for milk yield and residual feed intake, as a measure of feed efficiency. When including feed efficiency in genomic BLUP schemes, it was possible to...
