Analysis Enhancements 2024
Sheep Genetics continually strives to provide a world leading genetic evaluation for our clients. We implement annual analysis enhancements to ensure that we continue to provide world-leading genetic evaluation services to our Sheep Genetics clients. Sheep Genetics works alongside the Animal Genetics and Breeding Unit (AGBU) who are responsible for the cutting-edge research and development behind the enhancements to the Sheep Genetics evaluations. I would personally like to acknowledge the work of the team at AGBU for the many years’ worth of work that have gone into this year’s enhancements.
In summary the enhancements implemented this year fall under 2 key themes:
1. 2024 is a year of refinement with smaller updates and changes than the previous 2 years' worth of enhancements. This includes refinements and final release of the updated MERINOSELECT indexes.
2. There are more phenotypes and genotypes being used in the genetic evaluation than ever before, which enables new and updated ways for this data to be utilised. With more breeds then ever in LAMBPLAN accessing the power of single-step genomic evaluation with the inclusion of their genotypes.
The analysis enhancements will be implemented for the following runs:
15th May for LAMBPLAN
21st May for MERINOSELECT/DOHNE (Final MERINOSELECT Indexes released)
