Estimativas de parâmetros genéticos e de ganhos direto e indireto à seleção para características de crescimento de machos e fêmeas da raça Canchim

Abstract: RESUMO -Neste trabalho, objetivou-se estimar as herdabilidades e as correlações genéticas entre os pesos ao nascimento (PN), à desmama (P240), ao ano (P365) e ao sobreano (P550), os ganhos de peso do nascimento à desmama (GND) e do nascimento ao sobreano (GN18), o número de dias para ganhar 175 kg do nascimento à desmama (D175) e para ganhar 450 kg do nascimento ao abate (D450) de machos e fêmeas, o peso adulto (PAD) de fêmeas em um rebanho da raça Canchim visando à definição de critérios de seleção.

“…These correlations are similar to those reported in the literature for Zebu breeds, which range from 0.54 to 0.63 (MW x WW) and from 0.62 to 0.80 (MW x YW) (Mercadante et al, 2004;Castro-Pereira et al, 2007;Boligon et al, 2009;Pedrosa et al, 2010). Table 3.…”

“…Growth traits are easily measured and have medium to high heritability (Alencar et al, 1993;Mascioli et al, 1996;Silva et al, 2000;Talhari et al, 2003;Castro-Pereira et al, 2007), thus suggesting that these traits are likely to respond to selection. Therefore, body weight measurements at different ages have been used as selection criteria in Canchim cattle to improve animal growth during certain periods.…”

“…However, the expression of this quantitative phenotypic characteristic is not only due to its genes, but also influenced by month of birth, the cow's gestational age, the calf's weaning age, the matrix's maturity weight, the mother's racial composition, the calf's sex, and correlations between these variables (Castro-Pereira, Alencar, & Barbosa, 2007;Bocchi, Oliveira, Ferraz, & Eler, 2008;Queiroz, Costa, Oliveira, & Fries, 2009;Barichello, Alencar, Torres Jr., & Silva, 2011;Fialho et al, 2015).…”
