Genetic resistance against scrapie disease related to lamb growth performance traits
Original language description
The objective of the study was to identify the impact of selection on genetic resistance against scrapie disease related to lamb growth performance attributes for Suffolk, Kent, Charollais, and Texel lambs. The allelic genotypes were grouped according to the presence of scrapie resistant allele. The influence of these groups on lamb live weight, musculus longissimus lumborum et thoracis depth, and backfat thickness at 100 days of age was investigated using SAS software. No significant differences for Suffolk and Charollais breeds were detected. Significantly highest growth traits were noticed for Kent ARR homozygotes lambs. Significantly lower muscle depth was detected for Texel resistant allele homozygote compared to heterozygote lambs. As a result, we were unable to detect a consistent evidence for reduced growth performance traits in relation to genetic resistance against scrapie disease. However, the number of animals in some groups caused as a limiting factor. This can be a potential reason o
