“…The expected response to selection with the economic values from each climatic region was calculated using SelAction (Rutten et al, 2002). For each region, we assumed that the same breeding programme and genetic parameters, from the MERINOSELECT database (Brown et al, 2006), were used (see Tables 2 and 3) that differences between regions were due to differences in economic values and not due to differences in breeding programmes.…”

“…For all traits at all ages, ewes and sires were selected based on BLUP-estimated breeding value. Selection responses were predicted with a pseudo-BLUP selection index (Rutten et al, 2002).…”

“…Therefore, breeding schemes should only be optimised with respect to genetic gain when the rate of inbreeding is restricted simultaneously. Modern software tools for the optimisation of breeding schemes predict selection response and the rate of inbreeding resulting from breeding programs (Rutten et al, 2002).…”

“…The selection response was predicted using the software SelAction (Rutten et al, 2002). Two scenarios were analysed: (i) a conventional breeding scenario where genetic progress is determined by progress made in a conventional breeding programme.…”
