Chapter 12: Bio- and estimation technology • Estimation technology for breeding value estimation • The significance of artificial insemination (AI) for breeding value estimation • Transgenesis and transgenic animals • Application of DNA-markers for disease genes • Finding disease genes or QTL‘s The most important calculation methods for breeding value estimation • • • • Selection index (SI) Best Linear Prediction (BLP) Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP) Animal Model (AM) The significance of artificial insemination for breeding value estimation Preconditions for breeding value estimations • Standardised environment • Test station or correction for environment • AI, the precondition for equality, as a bull or a boar are sire of offspring in many different herds The significance of artificial insemination for breeding value estimation • • • • Accurate estimation (large families) Independent of ownership Comparable Increased selection intensity and accuracy rIA by AI and super ovulation Transgenese and transgenic animals • • • • Gene constructs Methods for gene transfer Production motives for transgenesis. Other motives for transgenesis Gene constructs • Promoter (regulator-sequence) • Structure gene (DNA-code for a protein) Methods of gene transfer • Micro injection of DNA in male pronucleus • Embryonic stemcells and homologue recombination • Micro injection or other forms of gene transfer into foetal cells Motives for transgenese? • • • • Additive effect 4A New metabolic traits Pharmaceutics Organ donation Example of application of DNAmarkers for disease genes DNA-marker (A,B) within families * = disease gene, + = normal gene Identification of DNA-marker linked to disease genes or QTL‘s • The genome is ca. 3000 centi Morgan (cM) • A marker covers 20 cM • 150 DNA-markers are needed to analyse for a given segregation • Ca. half of the markers are informative, so ca. 300 all together have to be applied Family material suited for identification of a disease gene • • • • Family size - ca. 50 for an analyse At least 10 to 15 affected The best ratio between affected and normal is 1:1 The remaining normal are excluded randomly Genotype affected not affected aa 20 3 not aa 4 23 Total 24 26 Total 23 27 50 Family material suited for identification of QTL’s • • • • Family size - more than 1000 The existence of QTL’s is unknown Sire or grand-sire design can be applied F2 animals in relation to exotic crosses Sire design or Grand sire design QTL estimation • Grand sire design Estimated effect on offspring’s breeding values • Sire design Estimated effect on offspring phenotypes • Marker typing of parents and offspring, in both cases Graphic Sire and Grand-sire design Sire design or Grand-sire design, test size Least significant difference (LSD) in disease frequency for offspring with A1 and offspring with A2 Number A1 Number A2 S.D.
