It is important to note that there is still a limit of the number of sire-dam combinations that can be run in the mating predictor at one time so take care when transferring large numbers of animals to the mating predictor.
Genotype density included on Genetic Results tab Progeny details now included on the Single Animal Page
Progeny information will now be included on the single animal page in instances, where the animal has progeny recorded on the Angus Australia database. Users of Angus.Tech will be able to seamlessly explore animals within Angus.Tech, through animals that share pedigree or progeny links to other animals within the database. The inclusion of progeny performance information on the single animal page removes the need to start a ‘new’ search when viewing animals through the pedigree tool, where users are taken to the select animal’s single animal page. Progeny information will be displayed on the single animal page in the same way as it appears on an animal’s progeny tab. Users can view all registered progeny or select from registered progeny from specific herds. Users simply select either the ‘Show all’ or ‘Show’ beside the group of progeny they wish to view.
On the genetic results tab, users of Angus.Tech will now be able to view the density of the genotype that is stored for a particular animal. Users simply navigate to the animal’s Genetic results tab, where beside DNA Profile Stored will be listed the type of DNA profile and in the case of SNP profiles, the number of SNPs that are represented within the genotype.
