Breeding PROGRAM
This answers the question :
Which traits should be improved in the next generations?
Examples of breeding goals are defined improvements in
traits of production, product quality, health and welfare traits,
conformation traits, sport performance, fertility etc.
Breeding goal
• The mean genetic value of an individual as a parent for a trait.
• It is estimated as twice the average superiority of the individual’s progeny relative
to all other progeny under conditions of random mating
• The estimated breeding value indicates the value of the animal with respect to
the breeding goal:
the lowest ones will have a negative effect on the breeding goal traits and
the highest ones will improve breeding goal traits.

Random mating system
• Equal chance of every male and female gamete to
unite
• Out breeding or inbreeding
• Maintains diversity
• Used in progeny testing
With selection
• ↑ required gene frequency
• ↑ variance
• ↑ homozygosity if less animals
Without selection
• Constant gene frequency
• Constant variation
• Constant homozygosity or
heterozygosity
Random mating system
Assortative mating
• Phenotypically similar
• Extreme phenotypes exist
• Increase homozygosity
Disassortative mating
• Phenotypically dissimilar
• Extreme phenotypes exist
• Constant or increased heterozygosity
Random mating system
• Close relatives
• ↑ homozygosity
• ↑ genetic purity
• ↑ uniformity
• ↑ prepotency
• Seed stock
• Cull recessive genes
• Loss vigor
• Inbreeding depression
• Abnormal or lethal gene appearance
Close breeding
Line breeding
inbreeding
Mating of closely related animals.
For example, sire to daughter,
son to dam, and bother to sister
.

• Close relatives
• Seed stock
• Cull recessive genes
• Loss vigor
• Inbreeding depression
• Abnormal or lethal gene appearance
Close breeding
Line breeding
Purpose
↑ homozygosity
↑ genetic purity
↑ uniformity
↑ prepotency
Inbreeding DEPRESSION
• The reduced biological fitness which has the potential to result from inbreeding
• Inbreeding depression is often the result of a population bottleneck
LINE breeding
A system of breeding in which the degree
of relationship is less intense than in
inbreeding. It is usually directed towards
keeping the offspring related to some highly
priced ancestor

LINE CROSSING
Two lines of the same breed but
different bloodlines
Line crossing
out CROSSING
✓ Unrelated individuals of same breed
✓ Good in high heritable traits
✓ Genetic improvement within breed
✓ More emphasis on selection
out crossing
Grading up
Higher quality breed repeated
Grading up
Cross breeding
Is the mating of males and females livestock
animals of different breed compositions or types.
CROSS BREEDING
Heterosis
– is the superiority of the crossbreed offspring.
Mathematically, heterosis is the difference in
performance between the crossbred and
the average performance of its purebred
parents.
Terminal crossing
All the crossbred offspring are sold and
replacement of females must be purchased
or produced in the group by mating the
proportion of the group to the males of the
same breed.

TERMINAL CROSSING
Two-way TERMINAL CROSSING
Market all offspring
Three-way TERMINAL CROSSING
Market all offspring
ROTATIONAL
CROSSING
Involves alternating the use of males of
two, three or more breeds. Females are mated
to males of the breed which are least related.
2-WAY ROTATIONAL CROSSING
3-WAY ROTATIONAL CROSSING
4-WAY ROTATIONAL CROSSING
ROTOTERMINAL
CROSSING
Involves both terminal crossing and
rotational crossing
