Genetical Aspects of Bone Stability in Laying Hens Differing in Phylogeny and Performance Level
(2022-01-21)Skeletal disorders in laying hens is one of the most serious problems facing the egg production industry and is gaining increasing attention due to changes in husbandry systems and overall increased public concern about ... -
Genetic evaluation of longevity in dairy cattle - A new model for an old trait
(2017-11-23)Longevity is an important trait in dairy cows, reflecting the overall functionality of a cow. The aim of this thesis was the development of a new model for the routine genetic evaluation of longevity in German Holsteins. ... -
Application of selection index theory comprising genomic information to breeding programs of sport horses and pigs
(2013-12-17)This thesis presents three model calculations based on selection index theory to evaluate the benefit of genomic information for the optimization of current breeding strategies in sport horses and pigs. In chapter one, an ... -
Accuracy of Genomic Prediction in Dairy Cattle
(2013-12-06)Prediction of genomic breeding values has become a popular tool for obtaining reliable breeding values of animals without phenotypic information, especially in dairy cattle breeding. The main focus of this thesis was to ... -
Genetic differentiation within and between populations under selection – studies on diverse chicken populations and the Göttingen Minipig
(2013-05-03)In this thesis different aspects of the use of high density markers in the genetic characterisation and analysis of farm and experimental animal populations are addressed. First, a general introduction and an overview over ... -
EPISTATIC KINSHIP - A NEW MEASURE FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF GENETIC DIVERSITY IN LIVESTOCK POPULATIONS
(2006-03-13)The main goal of this thesis was the extension of the single locus concept of the kinship coefficient to chromosomal segments of length x in Morgan. The metric - called epistatic kinship - ...
