A personal note from Bonnie: Being commissioned by Purina Mills to update their famous Dairy Breeds of North America print has been a highlight and honor in my career as an artist. Featured on this poster are Ayrshire, Brown Swiss, Guernsey, Holstein, Jersey and Milking Shorthorn dairy cows. An appointed committee selected these 6 cows to be the breed representatives for this painting. Each exemplifying of the breed's most desirable dairy characteristics. What a great experience!

Genetic diversity is the variation in genetic information carried by individuals within a species or population. This variability plays a crucial role in enabling species to adapt and survive in changing environments and is essential for evolutionary processes. Additionally, genetic diversity might carry genetic variants that improve resistance to diseases. In this study, a genetic analysis was carried out to investigate the genetic diversity, evolutionary history, and inter-breed relationships of Swedish local chicken populations. The initial 533 base pairs in the hypervariable D-loop region of the mitochondrial DNA was sequenced from 64 individuals representing 13 different breeds, and autosomal SNP data generated from 83 individuals representing eight different breeds was used. The study found that a total of 16 polymorphic sites and 9 distinct genetic sequences (haplotypes) were identified among the 13 Swedish local chicken breeds using the mtDNA data. Clade nomenclature in this study was according to the nomenclature of clades reported in previous studies, where domestic chickens were categorized into nine distinct clades (A to I) based on their association with areas of domestication and geographical dispersal. The majority of the breeds were found to belong to Clade E, while others belong to clades A and B, which suggests that the Swedish local chickens have several maternal lineages that likely originated from the Indian subcontinent, Yunnan province, and the regions of China. The analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) revealed a higher degree of genetic variation between different chicken populations than within the same population. The nucleotide diversity of the studied breeds was found to range from 0 to 0.0169. An analysis of the mitochondrial DNA D-loop data using a neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree indicated that the Swedish indigenous chicken breeds share a closer evolutionary relationship with haplotypes present in European chicken breeds, rather than those found in Asian breeds. The principal component analysis of the SNP data revealed a closer genetic relationship among five of the Swedish local chicken breeds (landshna, lndsk dvrghna, Sknsk blommehna, sbohna, Kindahna), while the other three breeds (Gotlandshna, Hedemorahna, and Svarthna) were observed to be distinct. This research contributes to the understanding of genetic variation in the indigenous populations, and the findings may be applied to develop appropriate breeding and conservation strategies for the Swedish local chicken breeds. For a more comprehensive understanding of genetic diversity, origin, and relationships, it is recommended to perform analyses using both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA.

Technical Abstract: Multibreed models are currently used in traditional USDA dairy cattle genetic evaluations of yield and health traits, but within-breed models are used in genomic evaluations. Multibreed genomic evaluation models were developed and tested using 19,686 genotyped bulls included in the official August 2009 USDA genomic evaluation. The data were divided into training and validation sets. The training data set were comprised of bulls that were proven (had daughter information) as of November 2004 and totaled 5,331, 1,361, and 506 Holstein, Jersey, and Brown Swiss, respectively. The validation data set had 2,477 Holstein, 410 Jersey, and 182 Brown Swiss bulls that were unproven (no daughter information) in November 2004 and proven by August 2009. A common set of 43,385 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) were used for all breeds. Three methods of multibreed evaluation were investigated. Method 1 estimated SNP effects separately within-breed and was tested by multiple regressions to predict daughter deviations of bulls of another breed. Method 2 estimated a common set of SNP effects from combined genotypes and phenotypes of all breeds. Method 3 solved for correlated SNP effects within each breed estimated jointly using a multitrait model. Multiple regressions were used to test across-breed genomic predicted transmitting ability (GPTA)with within-breed GPTA and parent average (PA). A few effects were significant with method 1, mostly for Jerseys and Holsteins, but estimates were small compared with within-breed GPTA and PA. Across-breed GPTA from method 2 were significant for certain traits in some breeds; correlations between within-breed GPTA and across-breed GPTA ranged between 0.91 and 0.93. Results from method 3 were significant and adjusted coefficient of determinations for protein yield (the only trait tested for method 3) were highest of all methods for all breeds. However, compared with the current within-breed genomic model, method 3 increased the adjusted coefficient of determination by 0.0097, 0.0042, and 0.0017 for Brown Swiss, Jerseys, and Holsteins, respectively. e24fc04721
