Abstract
Estimates of the breeding value of producers and breeding stock of cattle use various information and analytical models and statistical methods, including the determination of the breeding value of animals using the BLUP methodology and the BLUP AM methodology, for the subsequent transition to predictive genomic SNP selection. The study was conducted on the reproductive population of cows of the Kholmogory breed of the Arkhangelsk region, Kholmogory district. A genealogical analysis of a spontaneous population of cows of first-calf heifers of the Kholmogory breed was carried out, represented by the offspring of 66 bulls, which were evaluated according to the main productive indicators and breeding value (PC). A rank assessment of sires was carried out according to the efficiency of the productive contribution of daughters, bulls' PC for milk yield and MJ, MDB. The studies confirmed the literature data on the possibility and effectiveness of using phantom cattle populations in assessing the breeding value of producers.
