1 Genomics, A New Era Eric Olstad Dairy Production Specialist Zoetis
2 What is Genomics? Genomics: An inside look at the DNA of dairy cattle Ability to make predictions based on science A new management tool A game changer!!!
3 Technology Evolves Over Time
4 How Do I Use Genomics? What is Clarifide?
5 HERD OWNERS HAVE DECISIONS Which has the LEAST CHANCE of being profitable? Which has the BEST CHANCE?
6 Options for Dairy Heifer Selection Zero Reliability Random Selection Visual Appraisal Very Low Reliability Superior Reliability Genome Enhanced PTA Parent Average Low Reliability 6 PTA = Predicted Transmitting Ability
7 CLARIFIDE Comprehensive Info One Test 4 Composite Indexes Net Merit $, Cheese Merit $, Fluid Merit $, and Breed Performance Index (BPI). 5 Production Traits Milk Volume, Fat Volume, Protein Volume, Fat%, Protein%. 4 Milk Protein Components Alpha S-1 Casein, A1 Beta Casein, Kappa Casein I & II. 10 Health Traits SCS, DPR, HCR, CCR, Productive Life, Calving Ability, Sire & Daughter Calving Ease, Sire & Daughter Still Birth. 2 Inbreeding Info Individual Inbreeding, Future Inbreeding. * Parentage ID Verification!!! 14 Haplotypes Fertility: HH1-5, JH1, BSH1-2 Conditions: Mulefoot, Polled, Weaver, SDM, SMA. SDM= Spinal Dismyelination (Brown Swiss). SMA= Spinal Muscular Atrophy (Brown Swiss) 23 Type Traits & Indexes 18 Linear Conformation Traits, Type-Final Score, Udder, Feet /Leg, and Body Size Composites. Coat Color & 5 Genetic Conditions Black/Red Coat Color. DUMPS, CVM*, BLAD, Brachyspina*. 7 * Available as a add-on test for an additional fee.
8 Strategies can be One or More Next Generation Genetic Strategies Non-Select Precision Inventory Management Select - Conventional Semen Or Beef Semen Select - Sexed Semen ET or IVF Amplification Recipient Index? 8 Additional uses: Mate assignment Mgmt or later life culling decision

10 WORKING HAND IN GLOVE Reproduction and Genetics Work Hand In Glove to Accelerate Herd Progress and Increase Profitability $$$ Generation after Generation Increased Reproduction Improve Resulting Genetics for Reproduction & other traits More Heifer Calves Born AND more opportunity to use other Technologies (IVF/ET, Non- Dairy semen) Higher selection intensity to increase rate of genetic progress

23 CLARIFIDE Areas of Opportunity Best bulls combined with best female genetics = ROI Culling decisions Studies show bottom 5-7% of your heifers are costly $$$ Sexed semen usage & conventional usage Use the best sexed bull on your best genetic heifers = HUGE genetic progress!!! Beef Semen Usage Numerous areas of opportunity to use over the lifetime of the animal Parentage ID (17% on avg. incorrect) Use in conjunction with a mating program Inbreeding control corrective mating Haplotype/Recessive control
