Lozano-Jaramillo M, Alemu S, Dessie T, Komen H, Bastiaansen J
Sci Rep . 2019 Oct; 9(1):15371. PMID: 31653937
Livestock production systems of the developing world use indigenous breeds that locally adapted to specific agro-ecologies. Introducing commercial breeds usually results in lower productivity than expected, as a result of...

Lozano-Jaramillo M, Bastiaansen J, Dessie T, Komen H
Animal . 2018 Nov; 13(7):1536-1543. PMID: 30419993
Predicting breed-specific environmental suitability has been problematic in livestock production. Native breeds have low productivity but are thought to be more robust to perform under local conditions than exotic breeds....

Kariuki C, van Arendonk J, Kahi A, Komen H
J Dairy Sci . 2017 Apr; 100(6):4671-4682. PMID: 28390719
Dairy cattle industries contribute to food and nutrition security and are a source of income for numerous households in many developing countries. Selective breeding can enhance efficiency in these industries....

Besson M, de Boer I, Vandeputte M, van Arendonk J, Quillet E, Komen H, et al.
PLoS One . 2017 Mar; 12(3):e0173131. PMID: 28288179
In sea cage fish farming, production quotas aim to constrain the impact of fish farming on the surrounding ecosystem. It is unknown how these quotas affect economic profitability and environmental...

Kariuki C, Brascamp E, Komen H, Kahi A, van Arendonk J
J Dairy Sci . 2017 Jan; 100(3):2258-2268. PMID: 28109609
In developing countries minimal and erratic performance and pedigree recording impede implementation of large-sized breeding programs. Small-sized nucleus programs offer an alternative but rely on their economic performance for their...

Omasaki S, van Arendonk J, Kahi A, Komen H
J Anim Breed Genet . 2016 Mar; 133(5):404-13. PMID: 26996153
In general, livestock and fish farming systems in developing countries tend to be highly diverse in terms of agro-ecological conditions and market orientation. There are no studies that have investigated...

Mucha S, Komen H
J Anim Breed Genet . 2015 Oct; 133(4):323-32. PMID: 26423022
This study compares two genetic management scenarios for species kept in herds, such as deer. The simulations were designed so that their results can be extended to a wide range...

Besson M, Komen H, Aubin J, de Boer I, Poelman M, Quillet E, et al.
J Anim Sci . 2014 Nov; 92(12):5394-405. PMID: 25414104
In fish farming, economic values (EV) of breeding goal traits are lacking, even though they are key parameters when defining selection objectives. The aim of this study was to develop...

Kariuki C, Komen H, Kahi A, van Arendonk J
J Dairy Sci . 2014 Oct; 97(12):7963-74. PMID: 25282422
Dairy cattle breeding programs in developing countries are constrained by minimal and erratic pedigree and performance recording on cows on commercial farms. Small-sized nucleus breeding programs offer a viable alternative....

Sae-Lim P, Kause A, Mulder H, Martin K, Barfoot A, Parsons J, et al.
J Anim Sci . 2013 Oct; 91(12):5572-81. PMID: 24085417
Rainbow trout is a globally important fish species for aquaculture. However, fish for most farms worldwide are produced by only a few breeding companies. Selection based solely on fish performance...
