Okeyo Mwai, AllyKomwihangilo, D.M.Lyatuu, Eliamoni T.R.Msuta, G.Ojango, Julie M.K.Mrode, Raphael A.[Establishing a national dairy performance recording centre to enhance dairy recording for more milk in Tanzania]Establishing a national dairy performance recording centre to enhance dairy recording for more milk in Tanzania

The aim of this study was to measure losses in milk production due to the impact of heat stress, using temperature-humidity index (THI) on test-day milk records of small holder dairy cattle farms in Tanzania. Climate data obtained from aWhere, an agricultural weather data platform (http://www.awh...


Ekine-Dzivenu, C.CMrode, Raphael A.Ojango, Julie M.K.Okeyo Mwai, Ally[Evaluating the impact of heat stress as measured by temperature- humidity index (THI) on test-day milk yield of dairy cattle in Tanzania]Evaluating the impact of heat stress as measured by temperature- humidity index (THI) on test-day milk yield of dairy cattle in Tanzania

The impact of utilizing the genomic relationship matrix (G) computed based on breedwise allele frequencies or different scaling factors on the accuracy of genomic prediction in cross-bred dairy cattle in smallholder systems was investigated. Data consisted of genotypes from the Illumina HD chip a...


Mrode, Raphael A.Ojango, Julie M.K.Gibson, John P.Okeyo Mwai, Ally[Improving the accuracy of genomic predictions in small holder crossed- bred dairy cattle]Improving the accuracy of genomic predictions in small holder crossed- bred dairy cattle

Genomic selection on UK dairy goats began in 2015. New traits for selection have evolved since that time with the addition of new genotypes for the reference population. The objectives of this study were to define longevity in terms of lifespan and production, to estimate their heritabilities, an...

Desire, S.Mucha, S.Coffey, M.Mrode, Raphael A.Broadbent, J.Conington, J.[Deriving genomic breeding values for feed intake and body weight in dairy goats]Deriving genomic breeding values for feed intake and body weight in dairy goats

The lack of data recording in smallholder dairy cattle system implies that the availability of molecular data could offer some quick wins in terms of using the genomic information in genomic evaluation and therefore genomic selection (GS). Initial studies have reported low to medium accuracy of g...
