Mrode, Raphael A.Ojango, Julie M.K.Okeyo Mwai, AllyMwacharo, Joram M.[Genomic selection and use of molecular tools in breeding programs for indigenous and crossbred cattle in developing countries: Current status and future prospects]Genomic selection and use of molecular tools in breeding programs for indigenous and crossbred cattle in developing countries: Current status and future prospects

To facilitate livestock improvement in developing countries, records on animal populations and their various productivity levels are important. However, in these countries, livestock recording presents a huge challenge. This paper presents an outline of the historical developments and the current...


Kosgey, I.S.Mbuku, S.M.Okeyo Mwai, AllyAmimo, Joshua O.Philipsson, J.Ojango, Julie M.K.[Institutional and organizational frameworks for dairy and beef cattle recording in Kenya: a review and opportunities for improvement]Institutional and organizational frameworks for dairy and beef cattle recording in Kenya: a review and opportunities for improvement

Nimbkar, C.Gibson, John P.Okeyo Mwai, AllyBoettcher, P.J.Sölkner, J.[Sustainable use and genetic improvement]Sustainable use and genetic improvement

This paper reviews experiences with cross-breeding for milk production in the tropics. Data were compiled from 23 different studies evaluating the performance of different grades of cross-bred animals as well as local breeds. Relative performance of indigenous breeds compared with different grade...


Galukande, E.Mulindwa, H.Wurzinger, MariaRoschinky, R.Okeyo Mwai, AllySölkner, J.[Cross-breeding cattle for milk production in the tropics: achievements, challenges and opportunities]Cross-breeding cattle for milk production in the tropics: achievements, challenges and opportunities

Meat production is the most important trait in the breeding objectives of sheep production in East Africa. The aim of this study was to investigate breed differences in live weight, conformation, carcass traits and economic values for meat production among Red Maasai and Dorper sheep and their cr...

Chagunda, M.G.G.Mujibi, F.D.N.Dusingizimana, ThéogéneKamana, O.Cheruiyot, E.Okeyo Mwai, Ally[Use of high density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays to assess genetic diversity and population structure of dairy cattle in smallholder dairy systems: The case of Girinka Programme in Rwanda]Use of high density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays to assess genetic diversity and population structure of dairy cattle in smallholder dairy systems: The case of Girinka Programme in Rwanda

Indigenous goat breeds kept by majority of smallholder rural farmers in Eastern Africa are adapted to the local environment. These goats are critical for nutrition and income of their keepers. Milk production per doe is extremely variable. The variation in milk yield in goats is due to varied man...
