Perbandingan Hasil Uji Performans Calon Induk (Heifer) Sapi Aceh dengan Metode Indeks Seleksi (IS) dan Nilai Pemuliaan (NP)
Abstrak: This research was
conducted to investigate the results of selection in Aceh cattle candidate bull
using breeding value (BV) and selection index (SI) methods. The Secondary data
in this research was records data from 2010 to 2013 and consisted of family

value of weaning weight (WW), yearling weight (YW) and final weight (FW)
included high category. Genetic correlation between WW with YW and FW were
positively moderate. The concluded of this research was 48 % heifers had same
rank on BVFW and SI from 29 heifers. Index selection method could be use for
livestock selection criteria.
Key words: Aceh cattle, breeding value, selection index, heritability,
genetic correlations
