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...

Selection applied, response of traits and combining abilities of inbred lines of beef cattle

Creator:: Hoornbeek, Frank K. (Frank Kent), 1928-
Abstract:: The investigations reported are based on two studies; the first is concerned with the selection practiced for performance in one inbred Angus and three inbred Hereford lines of cattle, the realized responses, levels of inbreeding and associated performance, and heritabilities of the performance traits. Selection differentials for all performance traits...

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...

Comparative values of liver nicotinamide nucleotide coenzymes, endocrine glands, and their relationships with production traits of diallel crossed beef bulls

Creator:: Anwar-Afghan, Mohammad
Abstract:: This investigation for the first time reports information on the correlation of various forms and ratios of nicotinamide nucleotide coenzymes in the liver tissue and endocrine glands weight with various production traits. Fifty-five inbred and line cross beef bulls raised under standard management conditions and slaughtered at 1000 lbs. body...

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...
