摘要

The fecundity of the dam and the growth and slaughter quality of her progeny determine the efficiency of a lamb meat producing system. The Texel (T) breed has positive slaughter traits; however, its fecundity is mediocre compared to some other breeds.The Booroola Merino (BM) has a major gene (Fee3) for ovulation rate (OR) and litter size (LS). Hence, the Fee8 was introgressed into a Texel population through systematic backcrossing to improve the economic efficiency of the Texel breed further. From 1986 to 1995 the Booroola gene was introduced into a Dutch flock of Texel sheep by crossbreeding Texel dams with heterozygous Fj (BM x T) sires, the sons of BM sires, proven homozygous by a female progeny test. Female progeny were systematically backcrossed with purebred Texel sires. From 1995 onwards DNA genotyping was practised, and males carrying the Fee8 gene, of backcross generation R2 (T ((BM x T)T)) or higher, were used for breeding too.
