Genetic parameters of various sow longevity traits considering culling reasons in purebred and crossbred maternal-line pig populations

Abstract Sow longevity is a key trait in pig production, with direct implications for economic efficiency, animal welfare, and sustainability of the sector. The main objectives of this study were to characterize removal reasons in purebred and crossbred sow populations and estimate genetic parameters for three longevit...

Genomic background of gestation length and calving-related traits in Holstein cattle.

The reproductive success of cows directly influences the profitability of dairy farms. Reproductive traits, particularly calving-related traits, generally have low heritability but sufficient additive genetic variance to enable genetic progress through genomic selection. Thus, the primary objectives of this study were...
