  2. Dual-purposecattle Dual-purpose Belgian Blue (dpBB) Montbéliarde (MON) Normande (NOR) EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  3. Dual-purposecattle • Difficulty in gathering relevant large-scale data in routine • Small sized cattle populations • (Organic) pasture based production systems EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  4. Usefulness of mid-infrared spectra (MIR) FOSS Milk samples (milk payment, milk recording) MIR analysis Calibration equations • Quantification • wide range of novel phenotypes ! Raw data = MIR spectra EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  5. Objectives • Genetic parameters of 39 novel MIR predicted milk traits • How MIR traits can predict longevity at early stages? • Any help from genomics? EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  14. 21,287 test-day records Prediction of longevity at early stages ? 2,988 primiparousdpBB cows EBV & GEBV for production & novel MIR traits 7,744 animals in pedigree 314 genotyped animals (108 ♀ and 206 ♂ ) EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  15. 21,287 test-day records Prediction of longevity at early stages ? 2,988 primiparousdpBB cows Different scenarios without and with genomics EBV & GEBV for production & novel MIR traits 7,744 animals in pedigree Partial least squares analyses (high correlated traits) 314 genotyped animals (108 ♀ and 206 ♂ ) EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  16. Longevity from MIR traits? Based on genotyped dpBB bulls with ≥ 10 daughters (N=160) EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  17. Longevity from MIR traits? Based on genotyped dpBB bulls with ≥ 10 daughters (N=160) EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  18. Longevity from MIR traits? Based on genotyped dpBB bulls with ≥ 10 daughters (N=160) EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  19. Longevity from MIR traits? Based on genotyped dpBB bulls with ≥ 10 daughters (N=160) EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik

  20. Take home messages • Novel MIR predicted milk traits for dual-purpose cattle: • heritable  selection • promising early indicators of longevity (for dpBB) • Use of genomics: • Slight increase of reliabilities (not shown) • GEBV for novel MIR traitstend to be better predictors of longevity MIR traits ~ useful in 3 dual-purpose cattle breeds EAAP 2018 Meeting Dubrovnik
