Exempel på sire

• The first analyses used grandoffspring of wild-caught flies as sires and dams.

• A total of 32 sires and 31 dams in 38 parental couples produced 151 litters.

• In bulls, the efficiency of in vitro fertilization is highly variable amongst individual sires.

• Their odds were improved greatly by siring offspring before the sister or in greater numbers.

• The effective size depends on the variances and means of the numbers of times (l) the sires and the dams are bred in the herd.

• 151 progeny of sires used for detection of economic trait loci in dairy cattle.

• In a granddaughter design, marker genotypes are available on elite sires and their sons and trait phenotypes are observed on daughters of sons.

• The estimated substitution effects were large and similar for the four sires.

• The simulated data were generated such that sires were heterozygous at all markers.

• The sire's two marker alleles are denoted by ml, 1 on his paternal chromosome and ml, 2 on his maternal chromosome for every marker position.

• The founder population consisted of 25 sires and 50 dams, and 15 discrete generations were considered (founder generation being generation 0).

• In practice, one would start by genotyping recombinant sires for the additional, ordered markers.

• Structure 2, which has 10 sires, 200 dams and 200 progeny, can be applied to animals such as cattle or sheep.

• 56 were mated with 2 sires and 13 with 3 or more.

• The distribution of progeny across the five herds was non-random for 5 sires and random for 15 sires.
