Abstract:
Meiotic recombination is an important contributor to genetic variation and ensures proper chromosome segregation during gametogenesis. Previous studies suggest that at least 1 crossover (CO) per chromosome arm is important to avoid mis-segregation. While the total number of COs per spermatocyte is known to differ in mice, this is only beginning to be evaluated in sheep. This study used a cytogenetic approach to quantify and compare the number of COs per spermatocyte in rams from 3 breeds of sheep: Suffolk, Icelandic, and Targhee. In total, 2,758 spermatocytes and over 170,000 COs were examined

Abstract:
Signature of selection studies have identified many genomic regions with known functional importance and some without verified functional roles. Multiple studies have identified Transmembrane protein 8B (TMEM8B)rs426272889 as having been recently under extreme selection pressure in domesticated sheep, but no study has provided sheep phenotypic data clarifying a reason for extreme selection. We tested rs426272889 for production trait association in 770 U.S. Rambouillet, Targhee, Polypay, and Suffolk sheep. TMEM8Brs426272889 was associated with mature weight at 3 and 4 years (p < 0.05).

Abstract:
SummaryThe Polypay sheep breed was developed at the U.S. Sheep Experiment Station with a reproductive capacity markedly superior to that of domestic US western range breeds. The Polypay is a four breed composite of Targhee, Rambouillet, Dorset and Finnish Landrace breeds. It is a medium-sized wool sheep (average mature ewe weight of 72 kg) with a smooth body free of excessive skin wrinkles on the neck and body and a poll head. Comparative studies with other US domestic breeds have shown the Polypay to have earlier sexual maturity higher fertility and prolificacy rates. Mature ewes give birth t

Abstract:
Breed differences were assessed in the daily gain and body weights of 6356 lambs from the Federal-Provincial Canadian Record of Performance program. The breeds represented were Suffolk, Hampshire, Oxford, Lincoln, Columbia, Rambouillet, Dorset, Corriedale, Leicester, North Country Cheviot, Southdown and Finnish Landrace. Sources of variation due to the influence of year, sex, type of birth and rearing, age of dam, time of year of birth, breeder (flock) and interactions were determined together with linear regressions of daily gain and body weights at 50 and 100 d on age of lamb within breed.

Purebreds, crossbreds and synthetic populations of sheep in North America of divergent genetic types produced 47–103 litres of milk for 121–144 d, consistent with "non dairy-type" breeds; however, this was substantially less than the 200–330 kg of milk per lactation characteristic of "dairy" type breeds in Europe and the Middle East countries. Among established breeds, the Suffolk (Su) breed produced significantly more total and daily milk yield, respectively, for a longer lactation (79 litres and 589 mL for 139 d), followed by the Rambouillet (Ra), Targhee (T) and Dorset (D) breeds (60–62 lit

The Finn, Romanov and several U.S. sheep breeds were machine milked to obtain information on several measures of milk production and milk composition. Data were obtained over at wo year to four year period utilizing 146 purebred ewe records and 165 crossbred ewe records. The level of milk production for a 130 day lactation period for the breeds evaluated was generally low compared to traditional European dairy breeds. The least-squares overall mean for milk yield was 68.8 liters. The Suffolk (80.5 liters) and the Rambouillet (75.3 liters) were superior. The Targhee, Dorset and Lincoln breeds f
