Seleção para peso pós-desmama em um rebanho Gir. 1. Resposta direta e correlacionada em 21 anos de seleção

Abstract: RESUMO -A seleção para peso pós-desmama tem sido aplicada em um rebanho Gir (80 vacas, seis touros) desde 1976, e um rebanho Nelore Controle, NeC (60 vacas, quatro touros), tem sido mantido para avaliação da mudança ambiental. O critério de seleção dos machos foi o peso aos 378 dias (P378), obtido em prova de ganho de peso, e o das fêmeas, o peso aos 550 dias (P550) em recria a pasto. A média dos diferenciais de seleção efetivos dos pais foi, respectivamente, 19,5 e 1,8 kg para Gir e NeC, correspondendo a 0,72… Show more

“…The main purpose was to introduce genetic variability in the herd and to avoid problems with inbreeding over the next generations. After 1980, the herd was closed and sires were selected based on the maximum selection differential for weight at 378 days (W378) obtained at the end of the weight gain test and dams based on W550 on pasture (Knackfuss et al, ). Since then, the herd was established with 80 dams and three sires (10% of the contemporary group) and 15 to 20 cows (50%–60% of the contemporary group) were selected annually.…”
