2011 Beef Genetic Management Guide by GENEX

For the past two years the Genex theme has been “balancing cow sense with science”. Our procurement of sires has concentrated on that philosophy, bringing together great genetics along with the kind of cattle that will last and be profitable for the long term.

Beef Genetic Management Guide Published annually for beef producers in the U.S. and Canada

This is an exciting time for “science” in cattle breeding. We have technologies available to us that we only dreamed about just a few years ago. For instance, sexed semen is now a reality and a regular part of many breeding programs. Genomics is another new technology. With the Pfizer HD 50K platform, cattlemen can identify differences in the genetic code which can, in turn be associated with the accurate prediction of an animal’s productive ability. This technology allows beef producers to make decisions on newborn calves, and in 2011 it will be incorporated into the Angus EPDs which will add significantly to the accuracy of interim evaluations.

At Genex, we have had the opportunity to evaluate the Pfizer HD 50K MVPs versus EPDs on all of our bulls. The results have shown excellent alignment and predictability on our highly proven bulls, giving us further confidence in using this technology to evaluate young sires. Genomic testing has proven to be an excellent tool in screening potential new sires. We have already utilized the information in purchases throughout fall 2010 and have been confident in our decisions to secure bulls such as 1AN01194 Marquee and 1AN01197 Up Trend after evaluating their HD 50K genomic data. At the same time, the differences in some bulls’ HD 50K profiles compared to their EPD rankings have caused us to pass on some bulls and more aggressively pursue others.

We believe the “science” part of our philosophy has come to the forefront in the past two years, but rest assured “cow sense” remains a critical part of sire development programs. We will continue to bring in bulls that are the complete package of genetics and marketability and will provide long-lasting profitable cattle for your operation.

The Importance of Sire Selection

Bull selection presents an important opportunity to enhance the profitability of the beef production enterprise. For several reasons, bull selection is one of the most important producer decisions, and as such, requires advance preparation and effort to be successful. To effectively select sires, producers must not only be well versed in the use of expected progeny differences (EPD) and understand breed differences, they must accurately and objectively assess their current genetics, resources and management. Furthermore, recent advances in DNA technology and decision-support tools add complexity to selection, but will ultimately enhance selection accuracy. Producers who stay up to date on advances in beef cattle genetics should profit from enhanced revenue and reduced production costs, as they best match genetics to their production situation. Sire selection represents the greatest opportunity for genetic change. Genetic change in cow-calf operations can occur both through sire selection and through replacement female selection in conjunction with cow culling. Most producers raise their own replacement heifers rather than purchasing from other sources. This greatly limits contribution of female selection to genetic change because a large fraction of the heifer crop is needed for replacements. Depending on culling rate in the cowherd, usually one-half or more of the replacement heifer candidates are retained at weaning to allow for further selection at breeding time.

Dan W. Moser, Kansas State University, Manhattan

So even if the best half of the heifers are retained, some average heifers will be in that group. Finally, the information used to select replacement heifers in commercial herds is limited. Producers may use in-herd ratios along with data on the heifersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dams, but these types of data on females do not reflect genetic differences as well as do the EPD used to select bulls. In contrast, whether selecting natural service sires for purchase or sires to be used via artificial insemination (A.I.), the amount of variation available can be almost overwhelming. Producers can find bulls that will increase or decrease nearly any trait of economic importance. Furthermore, since a relatively few bulls will service a large number of cows, producers can select bulls that are fairly elite even when natural mating. Use of A.I. allows commercial producers to use some of the most outstanding bulls in the world at a reasonable cost, allowing for enormous amounts of genetic change, if desired. Finally, selection of bulls is more accurate than female selection. Seedstock breeders provide genetic information in the form of EPD, which allow for direct comparison of potential sires across herds and environments. Unlike actual measurements, EPD consider the heritability of the trait to accurately predict genetic differences between animals. If A.I. is used, even greater accuracy is possible. Bulls used in A.I. may have highly proven EPD, calculated from thousands of progeny measured in many herds and environments.

Genetic change is permanent change. Among management decisions, genetic selection differs from others in that the effects are permanent, not temporary. Feeding a supplement to meet nutritional requirements is beneficial as long as the feeding continues and health protocols, while important, must be maintained year after year. However, once a genetic change occurs, that change will remain until additional new genetics enter the herd. Whether selecting for growth, carcass traits or maternal performance, those traits, once established in the herd, are automatically passed on to the next generation. Sire selection has a long-term impact. Regardless of whether a selected sire has a favorable or unfavorable effect on the herd, if his daughters enter the cowherd, his effects will remain for a considerable period of time. Assuming a sire is used for four years and his daughters are retained, his impact will easily extend into the next decade. And, while each generation dilutes his contribution, his granddaughters and great-granddaughters may remain in the herd a quarter-century after last sired calves. For this reason, purchases of bulls and semen should be viewed not as a short-term expense, but a long-term investment into the efficiency and adaptability of the beef production enterprise.

Genomic-Enhanced ANGUS

Angus Genetics Inc. (AGI) and Pfizer Animal Genetics recently announced an agreement that, when fully implemented, will provide genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs) for Angus cattle. These new EPDs will be “enhanced” by including genomic data provided by the Pfizer High Density 50K (HD 50K) SNP analysis. This new partnership combines genomic predictions from the Pfizer 50K DNA marker platform with the American Angus Association’s comprehensive genetic evaluations. This will provide breeders and users of Angus genetics access to a dependable and complete set of EPDs, especially useful for young, unproven sire and replacement heifer prospects where EPDs are primarily dependent on pedigree data. What is HD 50K? High Density 50K is the beef industry’s first and only DNA platform that includes more than 54,000 marker genotypes derived for each animal. This provides the most complete coverage of the cattle genome commercially available. The 54,000 markers are distributed across all the chromosomes in the cattle genome. The collective effects on traits of economic importance by these markers are expressed as molecular values predictions (MVPs) that have been published on the Genex website and previous sire directory. These MVPs will soon be integrated into the GE-EPDs. By including this genomic information, the EPDs will describe more overall genetic variation for the current set of 14 traits, thus making them more accurate. By using the 54,000 marker panel, the program provides long-term flexibility for evaluation of other traits that may be evaluated in the future. What’s the advantage of GE-EPDs powered by HD 50K? GE-EPDs will incorporate all available pedigree, individual and progeny performance, and 50K genotype information. Combining the genomic data and traditional EPDs into one genetic prediction gives breeders access to the most accurate EPDs possible. This provides

Geneti the opportunity for more simplified and informed selection decisions. The accuracy of GE-EPDs for young animals will allow more dependable and intense selection at younger ages resulting in more response to selection and consequently better progeny performance. Figure 1. Sources of information for GE-EPDs, Accuracies and Indexes.

Kent Anderson, Pfizer Animal Genetics / Associate Director, North American Technical Services Alfred Kuck, Genex Cooperative / Vice President Beef Programs

What traits are included in the HD 50K offering distributed by AGI? Traits included in the current HD 50K offering are provided in Table 1. This includes most of the usual Angus EPD traits and several traits for which there are no EPDs. When fully implemented, GE-EPDs will be reported for all traits except Dry Matter Intake, Residual Feed Intake (formally reported as Net Feed Intake) and Tenderness. Genomic predictions for dry matter intake will be integrated into GE-EPDs for Residual Average Daily Gain. Table 1. Current HD 50K for Angus Traits.

Calving Calving Ease Direct Birth Weight

Yearling Weight Feed Efficiency Dry Matter Intake* Residual Feed Intake**

Growth Weaning Weight Average Daily Gain

Carcass Carcass Weight Fat Thickness Ribeye Area Marbling Score Tenderness**

*Molecular breeding values for dry matter intake will contribute to EPDs for Residual Average Daily Gain. **Since there are no EPDs available for these traits, only percent ranks associated with molecular breeding values are reported.

To simplify reported information and focus selection decisions on GE-EPDs, the MVPs that have been reported by Pfizer in the past will not be distributed to customers by AGI. However, percent ranks to the nearest one percent associated with MVPs, will be reported to customers for an “independent” look at the animal’s genomic value. These percent rank results will not be part of the animal’s public record on the American Angus Association website. This allows breeders to gauge the effect of the genomic information separate from GE-EPDs. Summary GE-EPDs enabled by the partnership between AGI and Pfizer Animal Genetics ushers in a new era in Angus genetic evaluation. When implementation is complete, GE-EPDs powered by HD 50K are anticipated to provide the most dependable selection tools available for relatively unproven Angus seedstock. It will also provide increased scope of selection across more economically important traits for proven A.I. sires. For information about testing animals on the HD 50K platform, visit www.angus.org, or pfizeranimalgenetics.com. Genex beef programs’ staff has made a commitment to the use of all tools available in our sire selection program. The HD 50K evaluations can provide additional information on a potential bull coming into the Genex lineup that is “independent” of both pedigree and progeny information. Genex beef staff strives to procure the best bulls possible. In addition to pedigree, performance data, ultrasound data, as well as inspecting the bull and any progeny, the HD 50K complete the process. Genex intends to use HD 50K results whenever possible in evaluating potential sires for the lineup. In the end, we hope to make the lineup even stronger.

2010 ACROSS-BREED EPD TABLE The table of adjustment factors to be used to estimate across-breed expected progeny differences (AB-EPDs) for eighteen breeds was presented at the Beef Improvement Federation Annual Meeting in Columbia, Mo., on June 30, 2010 (see Table 1). Across-breed adjustment factors have been calculated for growth traits and maternal milk since 1993. Adjustment factors for carcass traits have been calculated since 2008; to be included, breeds must have carcass data in the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (USMARC) database and report their carcass EPDs on an actual carcass a third, unrelated breed) between 2008 born animals under conditions at USMARC are basis using an age-adjusted endpoint. Bulls of different breeds can be compared on the same EPD scale by adding the appropriate adjustment presented in Table 2. factor to the EPDs produced in the most recent genetic evaluations for each of theThe sixteen breeds. AB-EPDs are using mostEPDs useful to most commercial adjustment factors The in Table 1 were updated from the recent producers purchasing bulls of more than one breed to use in cross-breedingnational programs. cattle evaluations conducted by each of the eighteen breed associations (current as of May 2010). The breed differences used to calculate the factors are based on comparisons of progeny of sires fromexpected each of these in the Germplasm Evaluation Programof at USMARC Most breed associations publish EPDs on an annual basis. These EPDs predict differences inbreeds performance of future progeny two or in Clay Center, Nebraska. Theseand analyses were conducted by ability USMARC(as geneticists Larry in more bulls within the same breed for traits including birth weight, weaning weight, yearling weight, maternal milking reflected (email: Larry.Kuehn@ars.usda.gov; ph: 402-762-4352) and Mark Thallman (email: progeny weaning weights).

Terminology

EPD: Expected Progeny Difference - The expected differences in performance of a sire’s progeny when compared to the average progeny of all sires evaluated within the breed. Based on actual performance, progeny performance and relatives’ performance. ACC: Accuracy - The reliability placed on the EPD. CE, CED: Calving Ease Direct - The difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. The average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers. BW: Birth Weight - The birth weight of a bull’s progeny when compared to the breed average, in pounds. WW: Weaning Weight - Adjusted weaning weights of a bull’s progeny when compared to the breed average, in pounds. YW: Yearling Weight - The adjusted yearling weights of a bull’s progeny when compared to breed average, in pounds. SCR, SC: Scrotal Circumference (Angus, Charolais, Hereford) - Adjusted yearling scrotal circumferences of a bull’s progeny when compared to breed average, in centimeters. CETM, CEM, MCE: Calving Ease Total Maternal, Calving Ease Maternal, Maternal Calving Ease - The difference in percentage of unassisted births with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf daughters. Milk, MM - The amount of pre-weaning performance gained by calves which can be attributed to the milking ability of a bull’s daughters, expressed in pounds of calf. TM, MWW: Total Maternal, Maternal Weaning Weight (Red Angus, Simmental, Charolais) - Each of these terms measures a sire’s ability to transmit milk production and growth rate through his daughters. Predicts the weaning weight of a sire’s daughters’ calves. Equal to his milk EPD plus half his WW EPD. M&G: Maternal Milk & Growth (Hereford) - The Milk EPD plus half the WW EPD. A sire’s M&G EPD reflects what he is expected to transmit to his daughters for a combination of growth genetics and maternal production. ME: Maintenance Energy (Red Angus) - Differences in mature cow maintenance energy requirements. Expressed as megacalories per month. HPG: Heifer Pregnancy (Red Angus) - Differences in percent probability of female progeny conceiving to calve as 2-yearolds; a more accurate measurement than her sire’s or paternal brothers’ scrotal circumference. MkH: Milking Herds (Angus) - Indicates the number of herds from which daughters are reported. MkD: Milking Daughters (Angus) - Reflects the number of daughters having progeny weaning weight records included in the analysis. MW: Mature Weight (Angus) - A predictor of the difference in mature weight of a sire’s daughters compared to the daughters of other sires, expressed in pounds. MH: Mature Height (Angus) - A predictor of the difference in mature height of a sire’s daughters compared to daughters of other sires, expressed in inches. STAY: Stayability (Red Angus, Simmental) - Differences in percent probability of daughters staying productive past the age of six. CW: Carcass Weight (Angus, Simmental, Charolais) - The adjusted carcass weights of a sire’s progeny, expressed in pounds.

MB, MARB: Marbling - A predictor of the difference in a sire’s progeny for percent marbling score or percent intramuscular fat in the ribeye muscle compared to other sires. YG: Yield Grade (Simmental) - Expressed as a deviation of Yield Grade units where negative values are desirable. REA, RE: Ribeye Area - Adjusted ribeye area of a sire’s progeny, measured in square inches. FAT, BF: Back Fat - The adjusted twelfth rib fat thickness of a sire’s progeny, expressed in inches. SHR: Shear Force (Simmental) - Pounds of force required to shear a steak. Carc H/P and Ult H/P: Group/progeny (Angus) - Reflects the number of contemporary groups and the number of carcass and ultrasound progeny included in the analysis. I: Interim - The EPD is based on performance information of a bull’s sire, dam and relatives. P: Pedigree estimate.

Indexes

$EN: Cow Energy Value (Angus) - Assesses differences in cow energy requirements as an expected dollar savings difference in daughters of sires, expressed in dollar savings/cow/year. A larger value is more favorable when comparing two animals. $EN savings include lactation energy requirements and energy costs associated with differences in mature cow size. $W: Weaned Calf Value (Angus) - The expected average difference in future progeny performance for pre-weaning merit, expressed in $/head. $W includes both revenue and cost adjustments associated with differences in birth weight, weaning direct growth, maternal milk and mature cow size. $F: Feedlot Value (Angus) - Calculates a $/head difference in expected progeny performance for post weaning merit. $F uses WW and YW EPDs along with trait inter-relationships. Typical feedlot gain value, feed consumption and cost differences are accounted for in the final calculations. $G: Grid Value (Angus) - Combines quality grade and yield grade attributes, and is calculated for animals with carcass EPDs, ultrasound EPDs or both types of EPDs. A three-year rolling average is used to establish typical industry economic values for quality grade and yield grade schedules. $B: Beef Value (Angus) - The expected average dollar per head difference in the progeny post weaning performance and carcass value. The $B value is comprised of two pieces: $F and $G. API: All-Purpose Index (Simmental) - Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd (bred to both Angus first-calf heifers and mature cows) with daughters retained and remaining heifers and steers put on feed and sold grade and yield. TI: Terminal Index (Simmental) - Evaluates sires for use on mature Angus cows with all offspring put on feed and sold on a grade and yield basis. BMI$: Baldy Maternal Index (Hereford) - An index to maximize profit for commercial cow/calf producers who use Hereford bulls in rotational crossbreeding programs on Angus-based cows and heifers. Retained ownership of calves is assumed, with fed cattle marketed on a Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB) pricing grid. CEZ$: Calving EZ Index (Hereford) - This index is similar to BMI$, except Hereford bulls are mated only to yearling heifers. Increased emphasis on CE and MCE compared with the other index

BII$: Brahman Influence Index (Hereford) - This index is similar to BMI$, except Hereford bulls are used in rotational crossing with Brahman rather than Angus. Greater emphasis placed on traits deficient in Brahman-cross cattle, (fertility and age at puberty) and less on acceptable traits (growth and calving ease). CHB$: Certified Hereford Beef Index (Hereford) - A terminal sire index where Hereford bulls are mated to British-cross cows and all offspring are sold as fed cattle on a CHB pricing grid.

Sire Information

Heterozygous Polled - Polled bulls that carry one horned gene. May sire calves with horns when mated to cows carrying the horned gene. Homozygous Polled - Bulls with a 99.9 percent probability of being homozygous polled, having been DNA tested or test-mated

to horned and heterozygous polled cows. Expect these bulls to sire all polled calves. Inconclusive DNA test - Bull was tested, but the lab was unable to determine whether the animal is homozygous or heterozygous. Double Polled - Young, unproven sires whose parents are both polled. Heterozygous Black - Black bulls that carry one red gene. Expect 50 percent black calves when the bull is mated to non-diluted red cows. Homozygous Black - Bulls with a 99.9 percent probability of producing all black calves when mated to non-diluted red and black cows. Dilution Gene - Cattle carrying the dilution gene will be gray, red or yellow. Non-dilutor cattle will appear black or darker red. Beef Staff Recommendations - The Beef Genetics Staff provides recommendations based on observations of the bull’s progeny, as well as knowledge of the sires and dams in the pedigree.
