Genomic Testing And Method R Variance Components Theory Of Dairy Cattle, Joseph Dewey Coleman
Genomic Testing And Method R Variance Components Theory Of Dairy Cattle, Joseph Dewey Coleman
Dairy Science
Abstract
The objective of this study is to determine the change in reliability from non genomic evaluations or Parent Averages to genomic evaluations. Due to recent industry popularity of genomic evaluations the California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo, decided to participate in the genetic movement of the dairy cattle industry. Genomic evaluations of both Holstein and Jersey cows at the Cal Poly dairy were chosen based on genetic superiority in order to possibly generate more income for the dairy and increase the herd’s popularity. Leading genomic companies such as Pfizer Animal Health, and GenSeek made genomic evaluation of the Cal …

Proposal To Implement A Surveillance System At The Cal Poly Dairy, Madelyn Cobb
Dairy Science
The objective of this project is to determine how to implement a cost effective and efficient surveillance system at the Cal Poly Dairy. This system would help monitor labor, feed, and cows while increasing the biosecurity, accountability, and efficiency throughout the Cal Poly Dairy. To make this determination, I researched different types of products and the equipment necessary that will meet the needs of the dairy currently and for future projects. A list of specifications was created that help guide the search for appropriate companies and products for this project. Talking to surveillance experts also helped create a better sense …

The Chicken Challenge – What Contemporary Studies Of Fowl Mean For Science And Ethics, Carolynn L. Smith, Jane Johnson
Between the Species
Studies with captive fowl have revealed that they possess greater cognitive capacities than previously thought. We now know that fowl have sophisticated cognitive and communicative skills, which had hitherto been associated only with certain primates. Several theories have been advanced to explain the evolution of such complex behavior. Central to these theories is the enlargement of the brain in species with greater mental capacities. Fowl present us with a conundrum, however, because they show the behaviors anticipated by the theories but do not have the expected changes in the brain. Consequently fowl present two challenges of interest to us here. …
