Abstract

The article provides an assessment of the use of gene technologies in the genomic-index assessment of producers in the conditions of farms in the Moscow region, which allows to provide dairy farming with high-quality breeding material. Genomic index assessment accelerates the breeding goal achievement process. It contributed to an increase in the productivity of cattle, an increase in the profitability of cattle breeding, which allows to reduce the time for creating breeding herds of dairy cattle by 2 times. Of the 15 bulls, 10 (67%) were evaluated by the A1-A3 breeding categories. Two bulls were categorized as neutral. The bull Ecuador received the A2B1 breeding categories. The daughters of this bull are fat and milk enhancers, which is 4.46%, with a milk yield of 12432 kg of milk.

Highlights

  • Genomic index assessment accelerates the breeding goal achievement process. It contributed to an increase in the productivity of cattle, an increase in the profitability of cattle breeding, which allows to reduce the time for creating breeding herds of dairy cattle by 2 times

  • Genomic scanning methods allow to determine the origin of animals, the genetic potential of productivity, as well as to accelerate the creation of breeding herds

  • Pursuant to the research in the Russian Federation and abroad, it should be noted that the biotechnological innovations allow to create new genotypes of livestock exceeding the original animals by 30-40% [1, 2, 5,6-10]

Summary

Introduction

The article provides an assessment of the use of gene technologies in the genomic-index assessment of producers in the conditions of farms in the Moscow region, which allows to provide dairy farming with high-quality breeding material. Genomic scanning methods allow to determine the origin of animals, the genetic potential of productivity, as well as to accelerate the creation of breeding herds. Marker breeding increases the importance of all breeding procedures, thereby accelerating the genetic improvement of herds in terms of productive qualities.
