* Now Displaying Spring 2010 EPDS
* GENETIC DEFECTS - NEW REQUIREMENTS
Avoid processing delays! Sires and donor dams with a carrier in their lineage (pink) or who come from a risk population (yellow) must be tested before registration certificates and EPDs are available on new progeny. No testing is required on dams of natural calves.
The epd/pedigree display from `Animal Search` shows the genetic status for each animal with color codes to help identify the status. The TraitTrac sytem shows whether animals are tested free (green), tested carrier (red), carrier in their lineage (pink), no known carrier in their lineage or from risk population (yellow) for one or more defects.
