  • Developments in prediction of breeding values in Slovenia
    Potočnik, Klemen ...
    In Slovenia the animal model for lactation milk traits and the sire model for other traits for all dairy breeds (Black and White, Brown and Simmental) were used till the end of the year 2000. In the ... spring of 2001 the animal model wasalso introduced to conformation traits, fertility traits, and the animal test day model for all milk traits. Data for all traits and for all three breeds were obtained from national data base, which is owned by Cattle Breeding Service of Slovenia. For all milk traits the repeatability animal model was used, and the animal model for all other presented traits. Heritabilities and all other variance components are acceptable. As expected, the genetic trends is the greatest for milk, fat and protein yields. from the point of view of national selection it is important the results on breeding value prediction are available also to farmers. each farmer can become our member and browse through our data warehouse. on the baisi of this data a farmer can make a decision which animal to select for breeding.
