Estimates of combining abilities, heterotic effects and phenotypic correlations among in-bred lines of beef cattle and their line-crosses

Creator:: Humes, Paul Edwin
Abstract:: The investigations were based on a complete diallel cross among three inbred lines of Hereford cattle. Records of Angus calves born during the same period were used to obtain more accurate estimates of environmental effects and to determine breed differences among the various traits included in the study. Estimates of...

Association of genetically determined polymorphic blood components with prolificacies of purebred and crossbred pigs

Creator:: Kray, Roger LeRoy
Abstract:: Crossmatings were accomplished among three semi-closed lines within a population of pigs, for the purpose of investigating effects of crossbreeding on reproductive traits. Two of the lines were purebred (Berkshire and Yorkshire); the third line ("Composite") consisted of descendants from inter se matings among offspring of crosses of the Berkshire...

Actual and predicted response to selection on maternally influenced traits in the mouse

Creator:: Lind, Ronald Egnard
Abstract:: An experiment was conducted to determine if selection from standardized litters would be effective in separating lines of mice selected for increased and decreased litter weight at 14 days of age, and if response to selection on this maternally influenced trait could be accurately predicted. Data were collected on litter...

Genetics of sheep transferrins as determined by disc electrophoresis

Creator:: Nix, Carroll Eugene
Abstract:: A total of 902 plasma samples from the Rambouillet, Targhee, Columbia, Lincoln, and Suffolk breeds of sheep were analyzed for transferrin type by disc electrophoresis. Six transferrin types, Tf[superscript A], Tf[superscript B], Tf[superscript C], Tf[superscript p], Tf[superscript E], and Tf[superscript P], were found in the Rambouillet, Targhee, and Columbia breeds...

Genetic and physiological relationships of growth hormone and growth in goats

Creator:: Simms, Danny Dale
Abstract:: An F₁ population resulting from mating pygmy and normal goats (local commercial breeds) was crossed to give an F₂ population. Analysis of wither height and body weight indicated that the F₂ population was intermediate between the parental types (pygmy and normal) with little overlap of phenotypic values for body size...

Morphology of epididymal spermatozoa from inbred and linecross bulls

Creator:: Turner, H. A.
Abstract:: Data were presented on epididymal spermatozoa from 29 inbred and linecross bulls raised at Oregon State University in connection with the Western Regional Beef Cattle Breeding Project, W-1. The inbred bulls came from four inbred lines. Three of these inbred lines were Herfords and the other line was Angus. The...

Performance of three inbred lines of Herford cattle and their linecrosses

Creator:: Munji, Marcus Tebid
Abstract:: Three inbred and relatively unrelated lines of Hereford cattle (1. Lionheart, 2. Prince, and 3. David) developed at the Corvallis branch of the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station as part of the W-1 project of the Western States were crossed annually from 1963 through 1965 inclusive. Data on 137 inbred and...

Gonadotropins in pituitaries of inbred and linecross beef bulls and effects of irradiation of mammalian pituitary glands on their ability to induce in vitro ovulation of frog ovaries

Creator:: North, Warren Arthur
Abstract:: There were two studies involved in the thesis research. In the first study, variation in the amount of adenohypophysis gonadotropins among 22 individual beef bulls were investigated. These bulls represented four inbred lines, and six linecrosses. The bulls were raised in the Oregon State University purebred herd. The bulls were...

Genetic polymorphism of sheep hemoglobin

Creator:: Templeton, Joe Wayne, 1941-
Abstract:: Five breeds of sheep (Columbia, Targhee, Rambouillet, Lincoln, and Suffolk) were found to possess two hemoglobin types (Hb. A and Hb. B) when their hemoglobins were examined by disc gel electrophoresis. The hemoglobin alleles proved to be co-dominant. Three of the breeds (Columbia, Targhee, and Rambouillet) were maintained at altitudes...
