42 HOW TO USE ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVs) PEDIGREE HERD 1. What Are EBVs? Many factors influence the appearance and performance of a bull. For example, age, nutrition, management, age of dam, health, season, quality of farm and the genes it has inherited from its parents. The only factor that can be passed on to its calves, however, is its inherited genetic potential. Estimated Breeding Values are measures of that potential and are calculated from the following: Measurements from the animal itself Measurements from the animal s herd mates (known as contemporaries ) Measurements from the animal s relatives and their contemporaries The degree to which one trait influences another (known as a correlation ) The degree to which each trait is passed on to the next generation (known as heritability ) Each EBV calculation involves solving a set of simultaneous equations where the unknowns are the genetic value of the animal and the environmental effect on its performance. When carried out many times, using all the information on the animal above, the equations are able to quantify the unknown genetic component. The end result is the EBV and over time, as more pedigree and performance data is added, the solution to the equations becomes

43 2. What EBV Information Is Available? EBVs are produced for fourteen traits that focus on an animal s economic performance EBV What Does the EBV Indicate? Look for Birth Weight (kg) Genetic potential for calf weight at birth High negative EBVs if you want low calf birth weights Calving Ease (%) Ease with which a bull s progeny High positive EBVs if you will be born want less assisted calvings Maternal Calving Ease (%) Ease with which a bull s daughters will calve High positive EBVs if you want less assisted calvings Gestation Length (days) Genetic potential for gestation length High negative EBVs if you want short gestation lengths The maternal component of Day Milk (kg) day growth (i.e. the contribution High positive EBVs if you that the milking and maternal want daughters to wean abilities of a bull s daughters make heavier calves towards their calves growth at 200 days of age) 200 Day Weight (kg) 400 Day Weight (kg) Muscle Depth (mm) Fat Depth (mm) Age at 1 st Calving (%) Longevity (years) Calving Interval (days) Docility (%) Scrotal Circumference (cm) Genetic potential for growth from birth to 200 days of age Genetic potential for growth from birth to 400 days of age Genetic potential for muscularity and potential to increase lean meat yield Genetic potential for leaner carcases Genetic potential for early sexual maturity Genetic potential for long life in the breeding herd Genetic potential for the time taken to get back in calf Genetic potential for being calm when handled Genetic potential for scrotal size. Linked to male serving capacity and puberty of daughters. High positive EBVs if you want high growth rates to weaning High positive EBVs if you want high growth rates to finishing High positive EBVs if you want good calf conformation Negative EBVs if you want to produce leaner carcases or take calves to heavier weights without penalty for fatness High negative EBVs for a greater proportion of heifers that hold to 1 st service High positive values for animals likely to remain in the herd for longer High negative values to breed cows that get back in calf quickly High positive values for animals that are likely to be more calm when handled High positive values for animals with higher likely serving capacity and earlier maturing daughters.

44 3. What Are Breeding Indexes? It is often desirable to select animals on the basis of more than one EBV. Breeding Indexes focus on specific breeding goals and combine the appropriate EBVs in to a single figure based on their relative economic value. This is widely regarded as the most efficient method of selecting on a number of traits at once. Three Breeding Indexes are published at sales, as follows: Index BEEF VALUE Contributing EBVs Birth Weight EBV 200 Day Weight EBV 400 Day Weight EBV Muscle Depth EBV Fat Depth EBV Index CALVING VALUE Contributing EBVs Gestation Length EBV Calving Ease EBV Index MATERNAL VALUE Contributing EBVs 200 Day Milk EBV Longevity EBV* Age First Calving EBV* Calving Interval EBV* Maternal Calving Ease * EBVs not published at breed sales When using an Index it is important that your breeding objective is broadly similar to that of the Index in question, otherwise you may unwittingly change aspects of your herd that you did not necessarily want to.

45 4. How to Use the Information in This Catalogue EBVs are expressed in the same unit as the recorded trait (eg kgs for 400 Day Weight, mm for Muscle Depth etc) are relative to the Breed Average. In sale catalogues, Breed Average for each trait is represented by the vertical line that is central on the bar chart. Bars that lie to the right of that line indicate EBVs that are above average. The further to the right they lie, the higher above Breed Average they are. Equally, bars that lie to the left of the line indicate EBVs that are below Breed Average. The further to the left they are, the further below Breed Average they are. An example is as follows: The central line representing Breed Average for each trait EBV values are shown & can be used to refine comparison with the breed using the Benchmark below Accuracy: Accuracy Values are expressed as a % and indicate the quantity and quality of records used to produce each EBV or Index. The closer they are to 100%, the more accurate the EBV. Highly accurate EBVs are less likely to change over time. Adjusted weights are the raw weights recorded for the animal, adjusted to the nearest 100 days. No adjustment has been made to account for the effects of the environment, feeding etc. The numeric EBV values on the charts can be used to further refine comparison with the breed using the Breed Benchmark below. This is updated annually.

46 2016 Limousin Breed Benchmark 5. Things to Consider To establish just how much influence a bull will pass on to his progeny it is important to remember to halve the value of the EBV, since the other half of a calf s genes comes from the cow. For example, a bull with a 400-Day Growth EBV of +62 is estimated to have the genetic potential to be 62kg heavier at 400 days of age compared to a bull with an EBV of 0. His calves would be expected to be 31kg heavier at that age when compared to calves by a bull with an EBV of 0, since they only inherit half of their growth genes from their sire (the other half coming from their dam). Select animals using EBVs that are relevant to your farm, cow type and market Bear in mind that EBVs predict an animal s economic performance. They are no judge of factors such as soundness, locomotion, breed type etc and you must be satisfied with your potential purchase in these respects too. Consider the traits that will make you most money, but Don t forget to check traits you may be compromising in pursuit of your goals, such as Calving Ease etc

47 6. EBV & Pedigree Info Just a Click Away EBV and pedigree information on all Limousin cattle are just a few internet clicks away Step 1: Click the Basco Online Herd Book button on the Limousin Society homepage ( Step 2: In the All Breeds Quick Search box type the name or ear number of the animal you are interested in or click on the Breeder Search button to look at all animals belonging to or bred by a particular breeder. The site will then tell you the animal s owner/breeder details, its EBVs, its pedigree and list its progeny with full links to all of their information. 7.
