Experimental comparison between selection for residual feed consumption and feed conversion ratio in Tribolium

Abstract

SummarySelection for residual feed consumption based on genotypic regression (RE) was compared with selection for feed conversion ratio (RA) using two experiments of downward selection for feed efficiency in Tribolium castaneum. The first experiment was designed to decrease feed consumption: weight gain, with residual feed consumption being based on weight gain from 7 to 14 days and initial weight, whereas the second experiment was intended to decrease feed consumption: egg mass, with residual feed consumption being based on egg mass between 28 and 30 days and adult weight. There were four generations of selection with four replicates, and a selected proportion of 20%. For each replicate, an unselected control was produced. Responses observed for the feed conversion ratio differed significantly between lines (p < 0.05) in both experiments; the RE lines having the greatest responses. The superiority of residual feed consumption as a selection criterion also held when this trait was considered as the selection objective, with mean responses differing significantly between lines (p < 0.05). It is suggested that both traits describe similar aspects of feed efficiency. The selection criterion used in line RE was equivalent to a restricted selection index, as was expected. The observed responses in the RA line were less than expected, especially in experiment 1, confirming the problems that may appear when a ratio is used directly as a selection criterion. The realized heritability was greater in a RE line in both experiments, in agreement with the theoretical expectations. The results show that residual feed consumption based on genotypical regression was an efficient selection method with respect to efficiency of feed usage.ResumenComparación experimental entre la selección para consumo residual y la selección para conversión de alimento en TriboliumLa selección para consumo residual basado en la regresión genotípica (RE) fue comparada con la selección para conversión de alimento (RA) usando dos experimentos en Tribolium castaneum. El primer experimento se diseñó para disminuir el cociente consumo: ganancia de peso, estando basado el consumo residual en la ganancia de peso entre 7 y 14 días y el peso inicial. El segundo experimento trató de disminuir el cociente consumo: masa de huevos, basándose el consumo residual en la masa de huevos entre 28 y 30 días y el peso adulto. Se hicieron cuatro generaciones de selección con cuatro repeticiones y una proporción de selección del 20%. En cada repetición había un control sin seleccionar. Las respuestas obtenidas para la conversión de alimento diferían significativamente entre líneas en ambos experimentos (p < 0.05), teniendo la línea RE mayor respuesta. La superioridad de esta línea se mantenía al considerar el consumo residual como objetivo de selección. Esto sugiere que ambos caracteres describen aspectos similares de la eficiencia alimenticia. El criterio de selección usado en la línea RE fue equivalente a un índice de selección con restricción, como era de esperar. Las respuestas obtenidas en la línea RA fueron menores que las esperadas, especialmente en el experimento 1, confirmando los problemas que pueden aparecer cuando se usa un cociente directamente como criterio de selección. La heredabilidad realizada fue mayor en la línea RE en ambos experimentos, en concordancia con los resultados esperados. Los resultados obtenidos indican que el consumo residual basado en la regresión genotípica fue un método de selección eficaz en relación con la eficiencia en la utilización de alimento.ZusammenfassungExperimenteller Vergleich zwischen Selektion auf Restfutterverzehr mit Selektion auf Futterverwertungsrate in TriboleumSelektion gegen Restfutterverzehr mittels genotypischer Regression (RE) wurde mit der gegen Futterumwandlungsrate (RA) verglichen. Im ersten Versuch sollte Futteraufnahme/Zuwachs sowie Restfutterkonsum bezogen auf Zuwachs zwischen 7 und 14 Tagen sowie Anfangsgewicht, vermindert werden, im zweiten Futterverzehr/Eimasse und Restfutterverzehr bezogen auf Eimasse zwischen 28 und 30 Tagen und adultes Gewicht. Selektion verlief ueber 4 Generationen mit je 4 Wiederholungen und 20% Remontierung., einer Kontrolle fuer jede Wiederholung Selektionserfolg fuer RA unterschied sich zwischen Linien in signifikanter Weise und RE war ueberlegen. Das galt auch, wenn dieses das Selektionskriterium war. Beide Merkmale duerften dieselben Aspekte der Futterverwertung betreffen. Das Selektionskriterium in RE entspricht einem restringiertem Selektionsindex. Die geringeren Erfolge in der RE Linie bestaetigen die Probleme bei Verwendung von Verhaeltnissen als Selektionskriterium. Realisierte Heritabilitaet war in RE groesser, entsprechend der Erwartung und zeigt, dass Restfutterverzehr ein geeignetes Krierium bei Selektion auf Futterverwertung darstellt.
