 Author(s): COLE, J. B.; SILVA, M. V. G. B. Abstract Genomic selection has been a valuable tool for increasing the rate of genetic improvement in purebred dairy cattle populations. However, there also are many large populations of crossbred dai... ... |
 Author(s): PRATA, M. C. de A.; EL FARO, L.; VERNEQUE, R. da S.; VERCESI FILHO, A. E.; PEIXOTO, M. G. C. D.; MOREIRA, E. L.; CARDOSO, V. L. The present study defined breeding goals and proposed selection indices for milk production and quality traits of Gir dairy cattle. The results indicate that milk component traits should be included i... ... |
 Author(s): RIBEIRO, V. M. P.; MERLO, F. A.; GOUVEIA, G. C.; WINKELSTROTER, L. K.; ABREU, L. R. A.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.; PANETTO, J. C. do C.; PAIVA, L. de C.; CEMBRANELLI, M. de A. R.; TORAL, F. L. B. The objective of this work was to determine whether the random regression model using linear splines (RRMLS) is suitable to estimate the genetic parameters for productive and reproductive traits of a... ... |
 Author(s): CHUD, T. C. S.; BICKHART, D. M.; ZERLOTINI NETO, A.; COLE, J. B.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.; MUNARI, D. P. Gene copy number variants (CNV) have been shown to be associated with several production traits in dairy cattle; however, the detection and validation of CNVs in crossbred cattle is currently lacking.... ... |
 Author(s): OLIVEIRA JUNIOR, G. A.; CARMO, A. S.; UTSUNOMIYA, A. T. H.; CHUD, T. C. S.; REY, F. S. B.; FERRAZ, J. B. S.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.

 Author(s): OLIVEIRA, C. S.; CAMARGO, L. S. de A.; SILVA, M. V. G. B.; SARAIVA, N. Z.; QUINTAO, C. C. R.; MACHADO, M. A. Genomic selection has transformed the livestock industry, enabling early-life selection of animals. Biopsy sampling of pre-implantation embryos has been described since 1968. However, it was only afte... ... |
 Author(s): PEREIRA, R. J.; SANTANA JUNIOR, M. L.; BIGNARDI, A. B.; VERNEQUE, R. da S.; EL FARO, L.; ALBUQUERQUE, L. G. de We investigated the effect of stage of pregnancy on estimates of breeding values for milk yield and milk persistency in Gyr and Holstein dairy cattle in Brazil. Test-day milk yield records were analyz... ... |

The objective of this study was to investigate changes in physiological parameters of dairy cows and understand which physiological parameters show greater reliability for verification of heat stress.... ... |
 Author(s): PEDREIRA, M. S.; PRIMAVESI, O.; LIMA, M. A. de; FRIGHETTO, R. T. S.; OLIVEIRA, S. G. de; BERCHIELLI, T. T. ABSTRACT: Ruminal gases, particularly methane, generated during the fermentative process in rumen, represent a partial loss of feed energy and are also pointed to as an important factors in greenhouse... ... |
