Title

Genetic Predisposition to Abortions Is Increasing in Iranian Holstein Cows

Pages

  79-85

Abstract

 Abortion is an important trait with noticeable impacts on economic profit of dairy herds. This study was conducted to estimate variance components and genetic, environmental and phenotypic trends for abortions in Iranian Holstein Friesian cows. The data used were 247230 calving and abortion records of 84421 Hol-stein cows, collected during years 1991-2016, from 51 herds in Iran. Variance components and genetic pa-rameters were estimated using a logit link function, fitting an animal mixed model by ASReml software. In this model, parity and milk yield were fixed, while direct additive genetic, herd-year-season and permanent environment effects were considered as random factors. Genetic, phenotypic and environmental trends were estimated as weighted regression coefficients of breeding values, phenotypic values and environmental deviations averages on birth year, respectively and the number of observations was considered as the weighting factor. Generally, abortion risk in the first parity was lower than the later parities and in autumn was lower than the other seasons. Abortion risk also increased by increase in milk yield level. Heritability and repeatability estimates for abortion were both 0. 165 ± 0. 010. A significant positive genetic trend (0. 038 rate/year) and a significant negative environmental trend (-0. 033 rate/year) were estimated for abortion, which indicated significant increase of genetic predisposition to abortions and improvement of environ-mental conditions to prevent abortion incidence. A significant positive phenotypic trend (0. 002 rate/year) was also estimated, which showed overall increase of abortion rate during the studied years. Overall, it could be concluded that genetic predisposition to abortion is increasing in Iranian Holstein cows, but inclusion of abortion risk in bull proofs and selection indices may help to reduce abortion incidence and increase economic profit of dairy cattle industry.
