Texas Limousin breeders recognized in fall genetic evaluationTexas Expected progeny differences from the fall 2007 international Limousin genetic evaluation now are available through various features of the North American Limousin Foundation website (www.nalf.org). Pedigree and performance records for more than 2 million Limousin cattle in the United States and Canada are the basis for the latest sire summary, which includes nearly 2,400 bulls. "Our semiannual evaluations provide Limousin breeders and their commercial customers with helpful selection tools for genetic improvement," said Lauren Hyde, Ph.D., director of performance programs for NALF. "The EPDs and Mainstream Terminal Index predict genetic rankings among animals, and they are the most accurate predictors of genetic merit." Tools on the NALF website that interface with the genetic evaluation include the Sire Selector, pedigree and EPD lookup, and the Limousin Exchange's "Bull Listing Service" and "Females for Sale" components. The site's "Genetic Evaluation" section includes the latest EPD statistics, percentiles and trends; sire-summary qualifications; general sire listing; trait leaders; and downloadable sire summary. The fall edition also includes the breed's list of Focus Dams, which are females with proven reproductive performance and producing ability.
