Published in 2019 at "Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics"

DOI: 10.1111/jbg.12371

Abstract: Abstract Breeding circles allow genetic management in closed populations without pedigrees. In a breeding circle, breeding is split over sub‐populations. Each sub‐population receives breeding males from a single sub‐population and supplies breeding males to one… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of dairy science"

DOI: 10.3168/jds.2022-22205

Abstract: Genomic selection increases accuracy and decreases generation interval, accelerating genetic changes in populations. Assumptions of genetic improvement must be addressed to quantify the magnitude and direction of change. Genetic trends of US dairy cattle breeds… read more here.
