HOW TO USE ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVs)

PEDIGREE HERD

1. What Are EBVs?

Many factors influence the appearance and performance of a bull. For example, age,

nutrition, management, age of dam, health, season, quality of farm and the genes it has

inherited from its parents. The only factor that can be passed on to its calves, however,

is its inherited genetic potential. Estimated Breeding Values are measures of that potential

and are calculated from the following:

Measurements from the animal itself

Measurements from the animal’s herd mates (known as ‘contemporaries’)

Measurements from the animal’s relatives and their contemporaries

The degree to which one trait influences another (known as a ‘correlation’)

The degree to which each trait is passed on to the next generation (known as

‘heritability’)

Each EBV calculation involves solving a set of simultaneous equations

where the ‘unknowns’ are the genetic value of the animal and the

environmental effect on its performance. When carried out many

times, using all the information on the animal above, the equations are

able to quantify the unknown genetic component.

The end result is the EBV and over time, as more pedigree and

performance data is added, the solution to the equations becomes

more accurate as the true breeding value of the animal is approached.

2. What EBV Information Is Available?

EBVs are produced for fourteen traits that focus on an animal’s economic

performance…

EBV What Does the EBV Indicate? Look for…

Birth Weight (kg) Genetic potential for calf weight

at birth

High negative EBVs if you

want low calf birth weights

Calving Ease (%) Ease with which a bull’s progeny

will be born

High positive EBVs if you

want less assisted calvings

Maternal Calving

Ease (%)

Ease with which a bull’s daughters

will calve


want less assisted calvings

Gestation Length

(days)

Genetic potential for gestation

length

High negative EBVs if you

want short gestation lengths

200 Day Milk (kg)

The maternal component of 200

day growth (i.e. the contribution

that the milking and maternal

abilities of a bull’s daughters make

towards their calves’ growth at

200 days of age)


want daughters to wean

heavier calves

200 Day Weight

(kg)

Genetic potential for growth from

birth to 200 days of age


want high growth rates to

weaning

400 Day Weight

(kg)

Genetic potential for growth from

birth to 400 days of age


want high growth rates to

finishing

Muscle Depth (mm)

Genetic potential for muscularity

and potential to increase lean

meat yield


want good calf conformation

Fat Depth (mm) Genetic potential for leaner

carcases

Negative EBVs if you want

to produce leaner carcases or

take calves to heavier weights

without penalty for fatness

Age at 1st Calving (%)

Genetic potential for early sexual maturity

High negative EBVs for a

greater proportion of heifers

that hold to 1st service

Longevity (years) Genetic potential for long life in

the breeding herd

High positive values for

animals likely to remain in the

herd for longer

Calving Interval

(days)

Genetic potential for the time

taken to get back in calf

High negative values to

breed cows that get back in

calf quickly

Docility (%) Genetic potential for being calm

when handled


animals that are likely to be

more calm when handled

Scrotal

Circumference (cm)

Genetic potential for scrotal size.

Linked to male serving capacity

and puberty of daughters.


animals with higher likely

serving capacity and earlier

maturing daughters.

3. What Are Breeding Indexes?

It is often desirable to select animals on the basis of more than one EBV. Breeding

Indexes focus on specific breeding goals and combine the appropriate EBVs in to a single

figure based on their relative economic value. This is widely regarded as the most

efficient method of selecting on a number of traits at once.

Three Breeding Indexes are published at sales, as follows:

Index Contributing

EBVs

Index Contributing

EBVs

BEEF

Birth Weight EBV

CALVING

Gestation Length

Calving Ease EBV

200 Day Weight

Index Contributing EBVs

MATERNAL

VALUE

200 Day Milk EBV

Longevity EBV*

Age First Calving EBV*

Calving Interval EBV*

Maternal Calving Ease

* EBVs not published at breed sales

When using an Index it is important that your breeding objective is broadly

similar to that of the Index in question, otherwise you may unwittingly

change aspects of your herd that you did not necessarily want to.

4. How to Use the Information in This Catalogue

EBVs are expressed in the same unit as the recorded trait (eg kgs for 400 Day Weight,

mm for Muscle Depth etc) are relative to the Breed Average. In sale catalogues, Breed

Average for each trait is represented by the vertical line that is central on the bar chart.

Bars that lie to the right of that line indicate EBVs that are above average. The further to

the right they lie, the higher above Breed Average they are. Equally, bars that lie to the

left of the line indicate EBVs that are below Breed Average. The further to the left they

are, the further below Breed Average they are. An example is as follows:

The numeric EBV values on the charts can be used to further refine comparison with the

breed using the Breed Benchmark below. This is updated annually.

The central line representing Breed Average

for each trait

EBV values are shown

& can be used to refine

comparison with the

breed using the

Benchmark below

Accuracy: Accuracy

Values are expressed as a % and indicate the quantity and

quality of records used to

produce each EBV or Index. The closer they are to 100%,

the more accurate the EBV.

Highly accurate EBVs are less likely to change over

time.

Adjusted weights are the ‘raw’ weights recorded for the animal,

adjusted to the nearest 100 days. No adjustment has been made

to account for the effects of the environment, feeding etc.

5. Things to Consider…

To establish just how much influence a bull will pass on to his progeny it is important

to remember to halve the value of the EBV, since the other half of a calf’s genes comes

from the cow.

For example, a bull with a 400-Day Growth EBV of +62 is estimated to have the

genetic potential to be 62kg heavier at 400 days of age compared to a bull with an

EBV of 0. His calves would be expected to be 31kg heavier at that age when compared

to calves by a bull with an EBV of 0, since they only inherit half of their growth genes

from their sire (the other half coming from their dam).

Select animals using EBVs that are relevant to your farm, cow type and market

Bear in mind that EBVs predict an animal’s economic performance. They are no judge

of factors such as soundness, locomotion, breed type etc and you must be satisfied

with your potential purchase in these respects too.

Consider the traits that will make you most money, but

Don’t forget to check traits you may be compromising in pursuit of your goals, such

as Calving Ease etc

6. EBV & Pedigree Info Just a Click Away EBV and pedigree information on all Limousin cattle are just a few internet clicks away…

Step 1: Click the ‘Basco Online Herd Book’ button on the Limousin Society homepage

(www.limousin.co.uk)

Step 2: In the ‘All Breeds Quick Search’ box type the name or ear number of the animal you

are interested in or

click on the ‘Breeder Search’ button to look at all animals belonging to or bred by a

particular breeder.

The site will then tell you the animal’s owner/breeder details, its EBVs, its pedigree and list its

progeny with full links to all of their information.
