Sentence examples for improved sire from inspiring English sources

A third mechanism of improved SIRE is to correlate the direction of turns, which will increase the persistence and reduces the probability that cells return to earlier visited areas [9].

Identified alterations of breeding values in dependency of herd descriptors suggest utilization of specific sires for specific herd structures, offering new possibilities to improve sire selection strategies.

A previous study [ 3] suggested that imputation accuracies are expected to improve if sires and other ancestors were in the reference data, because relatives share common and longer stretches of haplotypes than distantly related animals [ 34].

In the following generations, distributing the edits across a small number of sires improved response much more.

For instance, Kizilkaya and Tempelman (2005) showed improved precision in estimated sire genetic merit for a birth weight trait when residual variance was specified as a function of sex and herds, finding that estimates of residual variances differed by as much as 20 times across herds.

In addition to this, an experimental evolution approach where house mice were either polygamously or monogamously mated during 14 generations showed that offspring viability was improved when they were sired by males that had experienced the polygamous selection regime (Firman and Simmons 2012).

This suggests that, when using the BovineSNP50 BeadChip in the American Angus beef cattle population, a dynamic training set will be required to maximize the accuracy of selection in young animals and that the accuracy of DGV for animals in a population will be improved by including their sires in the training set.

In these cases, applying the within-sire family transformation improved the detection when the number of progeny per sire was greater than 100.

This improves when the sire is assayed, and if the dams are also assayed almost all the carrier sires are detected.

Although a larger number of genotyped sires would have improved the power, the results show that the data size was sufficient to discover three new regions on chromosome 9 with effects on litter size and piglet mortality with very small P-values.

Furthermore, the number of sires within nests significantly improved offspring survival whereas the number of mothers did not.
