DNA testing and EBVs An animal’s breeding value can be defined as its genetic merit for each trait. With a young breed and limited data currently available, it is not possible to determine an animal’s true breeding value – only estimates can be provided. These estimates are called Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs). EBVs can be used as one of many tools available to prospective Buyers when making decisions for their individual program. To the extent they are available from SPI, EBVs have been included for each Stud Lot. Supplementary Sheet A supplementary sheet including scan data, weights, measurements, joining and pregnancy testing details (if applicable) will be made available online and in hard copy on Auction day. This raw data and the results of physical inspection can be used in conjunction with EBV information to make a balanced assessment as to the suitability of an animal for your program. To the extent available, DNA testing information for each Stud Lot is provided. The DNA testing codes are explained below:
