104(3):3707-3721.
PMID: 33455798
This study investigated the hypothesis that dairy heifers divergent in genetic merit for fertility traits differ in the age of puberty and reproductive performance. New Zealand's fertility breeding value (FertBV)...

Anim Genet
. 2019 Apr;
50(3):307-310.
PMID: 30957265
Gender assignment errors are common in some animal species and lead to inaccuracies in downstream analyses. Procedures for detecting gender misassignment are available for array-based SNP data but are still...

Animal
. 2018 Oct;
13(5):917-923.
PMID: 30345952
Multi-sire mating of a mob of ewes is commonly used in commercial sheep production systems. However, ram mating success (defined as the number of lambs sired by an individual) can...

J Anim Sci
. 2017 Apr;
95(3):1042-1049.
PMID: 28380529
Evidence exists from a range of species on the impact of karyotype abnormalities on reproductive performance. Despite this, cytogenetic analyses of cattle, especially females, are not routinely undertaken. Genome-wide single...

J Anim Sci
. 2015 Oct;
93(7):3268-77.
PMID: 26439995
Genetic parameters for ewes were estimated for stayability (STAY) and productive life (Prodlife). Records from 658,871 animals from 241 seed stock or ram breeder flocks and one research flock were...
