Accuracy of genomic prediction using group recordings
Adhikari, Niran (Master thesis, 2022)Group records are the alternative solutions for traits that are affected by group interaction and are difficult or costly to measure on individuals. We aimed to investigate how group size, group composition, and validation ... -
The effects of SNP-density and sample size on G-REML estimates of genetic and genic variance
Magwaba, Tapiwanashe (Master thesis, 2021) -
Modeling feed intake and feed efficiency along the lactation curve of Norwegian Red Dairy Cattle
Obari, Christiana Onyinoyi (Master thesis, 2021)Including feed efficiency into breeding goals could be a key in ensuring sustainable dairy cattle production as selection could be based on how efficient a cow is in terms of what it consumes and produces all through the ... -
Using herd-averages of feed efficiency as training data for genomic selection
Wulijibuhe, X (Master thesis, 2021)Genomic selection on feed efficiency traits in dairy cows can save more feed costs and result in more sustainable dairy industry. Here we estimate the accuracy of genomic selection regarding dry matter intake in dairy ...
