    Author(s): Jaswant Singh and CV SinghJaswant Singh and CV Singh

    The records of 1367 crossbred cattle sired by 112 bulls were analysed to estimate breeding values and to compare various methods of sire evaluation viz. BLUP, LSM and sire evaluation methods on the basis of age at first calving, first service period, first lactation period, first dry period, and first calving interval. The average breeding value for FLMY. FLL, AFC, FCI, and FDP were estimated as 1711.63 kg, 320.38 days, 1299.54 days, 524.25 days and 207.60 days by method, 1941.16 kg, 321.60 days, 1287.12 days, 514.86 days and 195.57 days by LSM method and 1890.06 kg, 313.70 days, 1281.25 days, 508.56 days and 194.46 days by BLUP method. The accuracy, efficiency and stability of EBV’s of sires for the first lactation and lifetime traits were compared by different methods to judge their effectiveness. The estimated breeding values of sires for all the first lactation traits by , L.. Read More»
