The SGBI genetic evaluation is one of the most comprehensive among the Bos indicus breeds. The evaluation system, developed by Livestock Genetic Services, has been reviewed by the nation’s leading animal geneticists and utilizes genotypes collected from the breed’s leading sires and validated on 10K, 20K and 50K SNP chips. Thousands of ranch phenotypes serve as the foundation of the association’s genetic evaluation. Santa Gertrudis is the only Bos indicus-influenced breed offering the reliability of DNA verified expected progeny differences (EPDs) and performance-based selection tools developed from genomically-enhanced EPDs. In addition to DNA verified EPDs, The Mid Coast Santa Gertrudis Association has included 2 easy to read and understand selection indices for buyer use. These indices, growth and carcass, are designed to assist in the selection of cattle that will best meet the buyer’s breeding objectives.
Growth Index The growth index puts together weaning weight (WW) and yearling weight (YW). Since WW is contained in YW, post weaning gain (PWG) is used in the index to prevent double counting WW. The Mid Coast growth index is expressed as a star ranking within the breed, with 4 stars being the highest. For example, an animal with 4 stars would be ranked in the upper quartile of the breed for growth.
Carcass IndexThe carcass index contains marbling score, hot carcass weight, ribeye area and backfat. It is weighted by the economics of carcass values. The Mid Coast carcass index is being expressed as a star ranking within the breed, with 4 stars being the highest. For example, an animal with a 1 star ranking would be in the lower quartile of the breed for carcass composition, while an animal with 4 stars would be in the upper quartile.
