Genetic study of quantitative traits supports the use of Guzera as dual-purpose cattle

Eula Regina Carrara et al.

Summary: This study estimated the genetic parameters for milk production, growth, and reproductive traits in Guzera cattle. The results showed significant genetic correlations among these traits, suggesting the feasibility and potential of joint selection for both dairy and beef traits in Guzera cattle, while considering reproductive traits.

Genomic prediction ability for feed efficiency traits using different models and pseudo-phenotypes under several validation strategies in Nelore cattle

L. C. Brunes et al.

Summary: There is a growing interest in improving feed efficiency traits in cattle through genomic selection. This study evaluated the feasibility of implementing genomic selection for feed efficiency traits in Nelore cattle using different models and pseudo-phenotypes under validation strategies. The random cross-validation method showed higher prediction ability compared to EBV accuracy and age partitioning.

Genetic Diversity and Population Genetic Structure of a Guzera (Bos indicus) Meta-Population

Maria Gabriela C. D. Peixoto et al.

Summary: The Guzera breed in Brazil has experienced genetic bottlenecks, but efforts by the scientific community and breeders have maintained high genetic diversity. The dual-purpose herds are more uniform, with beef herds preserving greater amounts of genetic diversity among groups, while the dairy herd is genetically distant from others.

Summary: This study aimed to estimate genetic parameters for feed efficiency in Nelore cattle using genomic information. The results showed low to moderate heritability for FE-related traits and low genetic correlations with reproductive, carcass, and growth traits.
