I Have a Question about Genomics By: Roy Wilson, Associate Vice President-Large Herd Business Center, CRI

G E N O M I C A L L Y S P E A K I N G


? ?

??

Genomics has not lacked press in recent months. But has any one really answered the farm owner’s questions? I have had the privilege to speak to thousands of dairy producers on this subject; some in one-on-one conversations and some on grand stages. Here are the top five questions farm owners have asked.

·5· How does genomics impact crossbreeding?Several who considered or tried crossbreeding did so for immediate impact on “challenging” traits for the Holstein breed. For example, producers have been frustrated with the lack of progress in Daughter Pregnancy Rate (DPR). This trait is relatively new in dairy genetics time (first reported in 2003) so procurement staff have not had ample time to procure sires for it. DPR has also “lagged” due to low heritability and low reliability. Therefore, in some instances crossbreeding has been used as a quick fix.

Now with genomics, procurement staff can realize the true effect of traits like DPR sooner. When selecting a mating sire or dam of future sons, genomic tests reveal an accurate description of their DPR at a much higher reliability. Holstein procurement staff that select intensely for these kinds of traits can utilize genomic evaluations to produce faster genetic improvement. So does genomics erase crossbreeding? Most likely not, but it does allow the Holstein breed to address a few troublesome traits that prompted some to start crossbreeding in the first place.

·4· Do we make faster progress on low heritable traits?The simple answer is yes. The increased reliability gained from genomics dramatically increases the rate of genetic progress for low heritable traits.

Let me explain further. The sire procurement staff decides which sires to use as sires of sons. They generally choose new releases with 80 to 120 daughters and reliability ranges in the high 70s to mid 80s. The 70 to 80 percent reliability refers to the bull’s production PTA reliability while in actuality the reliability for a low heritable trait such as DPR is about 60 percent. With genomic testing, the chosen sire of sons will have a DPR evaluation at a more comfortable reliability level for procurement staff to utilize.

·3· Why do the numbers look so big?+4.75 PTA Type and +8.5 Productive Life are large numbers, but it makes sense. Right now, genomics identifies the superior bulls that would typically have received daughter proofs in 2011, 2012 and 2013.

It is also important to remember every five years the USDA-AIPL performs a base change. In simple terms, this re-adjusts the proof numbers for genetic progress. Therefore, genomically-proven sires should have large PTA numbers as they represent genetic progress. Next January’s base change will lower PTAs to some degree.

·2· How quickly will this technology improve?It is hard to say. Although it is a new technology for the dairy industry, the poultry and swine industries successfully implemented this technology long ago.

The next step in the dairy industry is the development of a “low-density” chip. This is scheduled for release in early 2010 and will allow for large application on the female side. Dairy producers will be able to receive evaluations with reliabilities averaging in the 50s. This should allow incorporating female genomic evaluations into breeding program scenarios to become more affordable.

The next step is identification of 100,000 or 300,000 markers (compared to the 58,000 markers currently identified) followed by over a million markers and/or entire genome scanning. Some predict this will happen in less than 10 years.

·1· What confidence should I have in 70% reliability?Keep in mind the reliability advantage of genomic information. Before genomics, young sire evaluations were based only on parent averages with about 35 percent reliability. New active sires with daughters averaged about 80 percent reliability. Now, genomically-proven sires average about 70 percent reliability.

Think also about the projected change in performance for a 70 percent reliable genomically-proven sire as he goes to 95 percent reliable. The change for a trait such as LNM is ±$147. If the bull is +$700 LNM at 70 percent reliability, then at 95 percent reliability he is expected to be between +$847 and +$553 LNM. Take that possible change into consideration when selecting 70 percent reliable sires. If your current genetic requirement for a sire is 90th percentile (or +$490) to maintain that level use genomically-proven sires above +$637 LNM.

What are the advantages of genomics?Genomics is just one more source of information that allows us to get a better reading on the true genetic merit of an animal. It allows us to select animals a lot more accurately at a younger age.

We now have a better understanding of the genetics of our animals. This allows us to achieve a more accurate evaluation of health and fitness traits, which is a great help in improving our breed.

At this point, close to 3,000 Holstein cows and heifers have been tested so far. This information combined with the DNA tested males gives us a greater population to benefit from genomic selection. Genomics will also allow us to get away from a bias that may have existed in the previous progeny-test system.

How should producers utilize genomics in their herd?The high genetic merit young sires (high-ranked genomic sires) are a great group to use on a 78 to 82 point cow. These sires offer an excellent opportunity to improve on what is already there. Use multiple sires; by spreading out the number of sires used, you will get a better average reliability.

Another opportunity is to match groups of superior animals at an early age. By pairing a group of elite genomic tested heifers with a group of genomic tested young sires, you are able to make more rapid genetic gain. Young animals will benefit the most from genomics.

What are the differences between U.S. genomics and genomics of other countries?The major difference is the number of reference sires. Reference sires are the sires at 96 to 99 percent reliability that can be used to estimate the genetic marker effects. In the U.S., there is a greater population of highly reliable bulls. That makes it easier for us to develop an accurate genomic prediction. I think in the future we will see the North American Holstein genetics improve at a faster rate than other countries due to this technology.

Will genomics further narrow the genetic base?That depends on how fast it moves along. In general, I don’t think it will be as bad as you fear. There are a number of special cow families that everyone wants a bull from. By being more selective in choosing those bulls from each family, we will end up with the best bull from each family rather than multiple full brothers at different studs. We will see only the elite from that family put into A.I.

What direction will genomics go from here?Currently a small chip is being developed that identifies 400 markers. This will be available at a cheaper cost and will focus on fewer traits, but will definitely be a good tool for producers who simply want to identify a possible outcross animal or know where their cows rank within the herd and within the breed.

With our current genomic test, 80 percent reliability from genomics is a definite possibility in the future. This will result from our genomic predictions becoming more accurate as more animals are genotyped. A higher test, which utilizes 300,000 markers would result in genomic predictions of 85 percent reliability, is also being worked on.

We are also looking at the possibility of finding the “actual genes” that identify milk yield and reproductive performance. Someday it would also be great to determine disease resistance or feed efficiency through a genomic test.

Why should producers be excited about genomics?It’s not just the dairy industry that’s looking at this type of technology. Genomic testing is also being utilized in corn, swine and poultry breeding.

The bottom line is that genomics is simply another way to better the breed. Ten years from now we will see big gains from this technology in that we’ll be milking better cows in our herds.

Genomic Insight from Holstein Association USA, Inc.As Director of Research and Development for Holstein Association USA, Inc., Dr. Tom Lawlor was asked to speak on the topic of genomics at recent barn meetings in Wisconsin. After his presentation, he opened the floor to questions from producers in attendance. Dr. Lawlor answers several of those questions below.

“If we run away from expenses, we will run away from benefits. That’s the main reason we invest in genetics.”

By: Humberto Sanchez, Reproducción Animal, S.A. de C.V., Mexico

This is what Mr. Salvador Gonzalez Martinez’s sons believed and consider to be the foundation of the success of their farm, Villa de Guadalupe, located in San Francisco de los Romo, Aguascalientes, Mexico.

This farm started in 1940, when Mr. Salvador Gonzalez Martinez’s father, Mr. Salvador Gonzalez Gonzalez owned just two cows and sold and delivered milk directly to people’s houses. During the 1950s, Mr. Salvador Gonzalez was involved in the business milking 10 cows by hand. For various reasons, the farm had to change location a number of times until the 1980s when the family settled in Villa de Guadalupe, Aguascalientes. This is where the farm remains today. During that time, they milked a total of 32 cows.

Since 1981, the farm has undergone many changes. The milking system has changed from manual to automatic and a milking parlor consisting of four units was built. Then the family built a double-5 herringbone milking parlor. On top of these adjustments, since 1996 the farm milks in a double-12 parallel parlor.

When Mr. Salvador’s sons DVM Salvador Gonzalez Mendez and DVM Jorge Humberto Gonzalez Mendez finished college in 1993, they took charge of the farm. At that time, the brothers milked a total of 120 cows. They started delivering milk to GILSA (Grupo Industrial de Leche Sociedad Anonima) where they received a price per liter of US $0.35. The farm also received prizes for milk quality, and the brothers purchased shares in the company GILSA.

Nowadays, they have expanded their farm to 540 milking cows. Besides that, they have young stock and heifers totaling 370 animals. While continually expanding, their goal for the near future is to milk a total of 600 cows. They are making new corrals to expand their facilities, and they have new freestalls.

During the last 20 years, the majority of the genetics used (or 95 percent of the bulls used) have been from CRI and its predecessors NOBA, Federated Genetics, 21st Century Genetics, etc. Many of the sires used include: Electra, Secret, Grandslam, Golden Oak, Top Secret, Tesk, Zebo, Converse, Romeo, Maui, London, Solo, Dracula, Jeter, Judd, Bond, Saturn, Rollo, Capitol, Hercules, Oneida, Don, Dawson, Murphy, Knock, Hosea and in the last few years bulls like F3, Encino, 1HO6833 TRES, 1HO2438 TUCHAN, 1HO6959 SATIRE, 1HO7127 SHARKY, 1HO5588 SOSA, 1HO7635 MAXIMA, 1HO8407 ROZEL, 1HO5433 COSMO and 1HO7235 TOYSTORY.

With this genetic base, today the farm has a conception rate of 46 percent at first service, 42 percent for the second service and 40 percent on third or more services. The calving interval is 13.2 months and their culling rate is only 19 percent. That, combined with the excellent management of young stock and heifers, has allowed them to expand internally every year and keep their farm free of disease.

With 540 cows, the farm has an average production of 32 liters per day, 2x (without BST). Milk components average 3.81 percent fat and 3.21 percent protein.

The brothers’ short-term goal is to reach 12,000 liters total per cow per year. This goal is supported by the philosophy: “If we run away from expenses, we will run away from benefits. That’s the main reason we invest in genetics.”

The Gonzalez Mendez brothers state, “It is important we invest in facilities, in feeding and in our young stock, but the foundation of everything is genetics. Without good genetics the other investments would simply not fulfill their potential.”

They are convinced their farm is different than others due to their dedication and attention to detail, which is the philosophy their father Don Salvador instilled in them.

With a total of 12 workers, seven working with the cows and five farming, and the brothers setting an example by working side by side with the workers, Villa de Guadalupe is a successful farm. But the brothers know that a farm’s excellence depends on excellent genetics. It is for this reason they do not think twice about the investment in genetics. They are convinced a good investment will generate good profits, and this is all for the “love of the cows.”

and Salvador Gonzalez Mendez, and Jose de Jesus Aguilar, the RASA sales representative in Aguascalientes.


The benefit of calving ease and better transition is becoming real as producers freshen heifers bred with CRI GenChoice™. Due to the higher percent of heifer calves, fewer difficulties and stillbirths are expected with pregnancies to CRI GenChoice compared to conventional semen. These easier calvings lead to healthier cows which produce more in their first lactation and generally breed back more quickly.

Why the Difference?When a Holstein heifer has a bull calf, producers rate the calving as difficult twice as often as when a heifer freshens with a heifer. Stillbirths – calves born dead or dying within 48 hours – are also reported more often when bull calves are born.

What does this mean for an individual herd? We estimate expected calving difficulties for a 500-cow herd which breeds all virgin heifers, first service to conventional semen (Scenario 1) or CRI GenChoice (Scenario 2). We expect difficult births cut in half when CRI GenChoice is used. We’d also expect a 33 percent decrease in stillbirths.

What’s the Dollars and Cents?Stillbirths are more frequent – generally eight to 10 percent of all calvings. Their cost is easy to figure – number of dead calves times their value if born alive. Plus, the dam may be lost as well. Heifers that survive the difficult calving are likely to get off to a slow start, milk less, and have more health and breeding problems.

According to published research2, up to $383 in expenses could be tallied when a heifer calves with extreme difficulty. That could be a $1,915 savings in the scenario here with five fewer difficulties.

Consider these statistics:• 19percentofallfirstcalvingsrequireassistance,

Certainly, fewer difficult births, fewer stillbirths and better transition in that first lactation can add to the bottom line.

“Since calving in heifers bred to sexed semen, our assisted calvings are below five percent.” -Rick Rausch, Rausch Farms, Athens, Wisconsin.

Calvings from sexed semen were reported as difficult half as often as those from conventional semen, when evaluating Dairy Comp 305 records from the 325 first lactation cows in the herd.

Since its release, there has been increasing interest in sexed semen within the U.S. dairy industry. According to a report in Theriogenology by Hutchison and Norman1 of the United States Department of Agriculture-Animal Improvement Programs Laboratory (USDA-AIPL), sexed semen matings in heifers accounted for 1.5, 9.6 and 14.2 percent of all reported breedings for 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. For cows, sexed semen matings accounted for 0.1, 1.3 and 2.1 percent, respectively.

The research also indicates that “Although the percentage of sexed semen usage is much higher in heifers, in terms of total number of sexed semen matings, the frequencies are more equal in cows and heifers (54 percent of sexed semen inseminations are to heifers while 46 percent are to cows).” That statement may seem to contradict the previously mentioned numbers for sexed semen matings in heifers and cows, however due to the sheer number of cows compared to breeding age heifers, that is not the case.

Hutchison and Norman also worked together on research regarding conception rates for sexed semen2, printed in the Journal of Dairy Science. They determined the effect of sexed semen breedings on conception rate by examining U.S. Holstein field data from January 2006 through October 2008. Hutchison and Norman examined 1,190,587 heifer breedings (of which 119,920 were sexed semen breedings) and 9,835,105 cow breedings (of which 106,393 were sexed semen breeding). Their research states, “Overall mean conception rates for sexed semen breedings was 44 percent for heifers (compared with 57 percent for conventional semen) and 26 percent for cows (compared with 30 percent for conventional semen).”

Their research broke down the breeding and conception rates even further. For heifers, 80 percent of sexed-semen breedings were first breedings; 16 percent, second breedings; and three percent, third breedings, with conception rates of 45, 39 and 35 percent, respectively. (These results are shown in Table 1.)

For cows, 43 percent of sexed-semen breedings were during first lactation and 28 percent during second. For first-lactation cows, 51 percent of sexed-semen breedings were first breedings; 23 percent, second breedings; and 12 percent, third breedings, with conception rates of 29, 27 and 25 percent, respectively. (These results are shown in Table 2.)

For second-lactation cows, 47 percent of sexed-semen breedings were first breedings; 25 percent, second breedings; and 13 percent, third breedings, with a mean conception rate of 26 percent for the first three breedings.

In analyzing the confirmed results of the offspring born from sexed semen, 91 percent were female offspring.

To sum up the research conducted by UsdA-AIPL:4 The number of breedings to sexed semen has increased throughout 2006, 2007 and 2008.

4 A larger percentage of heifers are bred to sexed semen than cows.

4 A little more than half of the sexed semen is used in heifers while the remainder is used in cows.

4 Sexed semen conception rates in heifers averaged 44 percent, down 13 percent from conventional semen.

4 Sexed semen conception rates in cows averaged 26 percent, down four percent from conventional semen.

4 Sexed semen breedings resulted in 91 percent female offspring.

Just as the second crop daughters of 1ho7235 Jenny-Lou Mrshl ToYsToRY-ET *TV begin to enter the milking strings of dairy herds across the world, this elite and prolific sire has produced his one millionth unit of frozen semen.

TOYSTORY’s production achievement, attained on April 3, marks a historic event for CRI. TOYSTORY is only the third sire in CRI history to reach such a level. Previous sires inducted into the Millionaire’s Club include the influential 21HO0738 REX and, most recently, the reliable health and fitness specialist 1HO5045 LYNCH.

Since his debut into the active lineup in November 2005, TOYSTORY has proven to be of the highest caliber. His daughters provide productivity, profitability and improved conformation impressing herdsmen, producers and dairy judges across the world.

“When you combine the high rank for Lifetime Net Merit with TOYSTORY’s outstanding conformation pattern, you realize just how unique this bull is,” states Angie Coburn, CRI Sire Procurement Manager.

This five-star favorite BW Marshall son attained the one million unit mark while his genetic evaluations continue to escalate. TOYSTORY now stands at +$486 Lifetime Net Merit with over 2,100 milking daughters in more than 500 herds. With nearly 500 daughters in his conformation evaluation, TOYSTORY has solidly risen to +3.23 PTA Type, +3.22 Udder Composite and +2.46 Foot & Leg Composite. His list of credentials goes on with efficient production (1588 PTA Milk, +62 Fat, +50 Protein), +1944 TPI™, 6% Sire Calving Ease, +3.5 Sire Conception Rate and +1.5 SynchSmart™.
