NAILE Shorthorn Steer Futurity Goes Non-Terminal Shorthorn steers will be ultrasound scanned for carcass traits rather than harvested following the show. As a result, Shorthorn steers can also enter in the Junior Steer Show and exhibit twice. Steers must adhere to Junior Steer Show rules and go through a separate check-in process. We hope this change will encourage exhibitors to bring their Shorthorn and ShorthornPlus steers to Louisville. For questions, contact Patrick Wall at 402-393-7200. Nomination forms due October 1.

Digital subluxation (DS) Q&A The research and discovery process behind DS has been a long and winding road with several unforeseen intersections. With a very small number of affected calves reported, the American Shorthorn Association (ASA) has exercised patience but always remained open and honest with breeders about the known condition.

Dr. Jon Beever has isolated the mutation and developed a validated test. The test is being licensed through the proper channels and will be marketed by DNA testing providers in the near future. In order to help breeders better understand the condition, Dr. Beever developed a series of questions and answers regarding inheritance, testing, and breeding management of DS. The ASA will handle this defect in the same manner as it has with Tibial Hemimilia (TH) & Pulmonary Hypoplasia with Anasarca (PHA). However, the effective management of this defect is a bit different. Please read on.

What is Digital Subluxation (DS)?

DS is a congenital abnormality that involves the malformation of one or both hind legs usually below the hock.

Typically, there is deformity of the leg involving the pastern joint where it joins the hoof (Figure 1). Depending on the severity of distortion, the survivability of affected calves can vary widely from relatively normal mobility to severely restricted movement, sometimes requiring euthanasia.

Is DS heritable? More than two years

22

ago, the American Shorthorn Association informed breeders that several calves affected with DS symptoms had been reported. However, at that time, it was unclear whether or not DS was controlled by environmental or genetic factors. Over a two year period of time, samples were collected from 18 calves affected with DS, both registered and non-registered.

Pedigree information for many calves suggested at least one common ancestor was shared across pedigrees, although this ancestor was not present in all pedigrees.

Furthermore, clear evidence of a single common ancestor on both sides of the pedigree was not found.

Subsequently, DNA samples from these calves were used to determine whether they shared specific chromosome segments, thus suggesting a genetic basis for DS. This analysis revealed that the majority of affected calves (n=11) did share a common chromosome segment indicating that the condition is potentially inherited as a recessive trait. Analysis of the remaining seven calves showed that each of these calves had at least one copy of the same chromosomal segment, also supporting a genetic basis for the condition; however the mode of inheritance remained unclear.

Sequencing of genes within the shared chromosomal segment identified a mutation that was common to all affected calves. This mutation results in impaired function of the encoded gene due to the insertion of approximately 9,000 DNA base pairs. This eventually results in the production of a protein molecule that is non-functional.

However, gene expression analysis shows that functional protein is also produced approximately 60% of the time, thus, in part, leading to the variability in the pathology of affected calves.

So, is the inheritance of DS similar to TH and PHA? Yes, the inheritance of DS is similar to TH and PHA in that both parents must be carriers of the mutation for a calf to be affected, thus it is inherited as a recessive trait. However, DS is different than TH or PHA in two

shorthorn country = october 2013

ways. Firstly, because normal protein can be produced even in the presence of the mutation, the severity of the DS deformities can be highly variable. In fact, an estimated 40% of homozygous calves may appear relatively normal in appearance. In genetic terms, this is called penetrance. Penetrance is defined as the proportion individuals that express the trait out of the number of individuals that have the appropriate genotype.

Secondly, homozygosity for the specific mutation causing DS is not required for a calf to be affected. Although the majority of the affected calves were homozygous (n=11) for the mutation, seven of the calves were only heterozygous; however, these seven calves were also carriers of the PHA mutation. This is able to happen because the mutation causing DS occurs in the same gene as the mutation causing PHA. In the case of the PHA mutation, no functional protein is produced and calves that are homozygous for this mutation display the PHA phenotype. In contrast, calves homozygous for the DS mutation or heterozygous for both the DS and PHA mutation are susceptible to the DS phenotype. This is because enough functional protein is produced to avoid the PHA pathology, yet there is still a deficiency in function so the DS pathology occurs. In addition, for the calves collected in this project, those that carried both the DS and PHA mutation were always displayed a more severe DS phenotype.

Say what? These data indicate that a specific mutation causes an individual to be susceptible to DS, however, the susceptibility is not 100% (penetrance).

In contrast to abnormalities like TH and PHA, where the mating of carrier parents results in 25% of the offspring being born with the disease, the mating of DS carriers would only result in approximately 15% of calves (25% multiplied by the estimated penetrance of 60%). Additionally, in matings where one parent is a DS carrier and the other is a PHA carrier, one would expect the same number or more affected calves,

often times with a significantly more severe DS phenotype.

At the most basic level, DS Carriers need to avoid being mated with other DS Carriers and PHA Carriers. In addition, any untested candidates of DS and/or PHA should also not be mated to one another. Keep in mind, this genetic condition may be present in other breeds, specifically those that already test for PHA. Since the DS condition is non-lethal and the individual phenotypes can vary greatly, breeders need to proceed with even

more caution. Any animal that exhibits two (2) copies of the DS defect can actually have no visual signs of the condition. These animals are also known as “homozygotes” or “affected” individuals. Any animal that is the progeny of a tested or potential DS Carrier sire and dam should be tested to be of Free or Carrier status before applying for registration papers. This practice will help prevent animals that do not display obvious outward signs of a genetic condition from entering the breeding population. The ASA will be working diligently to add DS status to

pedigree information as soon as possible.

In the meantime, any animals in your breeding herd can be tested for DS today.

Thank you Jessica 2012-2013 National McCall Shorthorn Lassie Queen

Since I was crowned as your National Shorthorn Lassie Queen this past November at the North American International Livestock Exposition I have gained a lot of experience, friends, mentors, and memories that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. It’s hard to explain and summarize a whole year of my experience and gratitude in one small thank you article. This time last year, I would never have dreamed that I would be where I am today.

I want to start off by thanking my amazing family. Through this journey they have been with me every step of the way. My mother and father have been a huge inspiration to me. When I got discouraged, I could always count on them to help me find my way and work through all of the planning, traveling, and finances. I can never thank them enough for the countless hours they have spent with me on the road chaperoning me and assisting me when I needed it. I also want to say thank you to my brothers and sister-in-law, David, Fran, and Jeffrey, for al-

ways being there for me and encouraging me, even when I didn’t think I needed it.

This experience has enabled me to become closer to you and I have loved every minute of it. I love you all more than I can ever describe.

Over the course of this year I have traveled to Denver, Colorado, Fort Worth Texas, The Kentucky Beef Expo, Junior Nationals in Des Moines, Iowa, The Missouri State Fair, The Kentucky State Fair, Star Search Sale at Cates Farm in Modock, Indiana, The America Royal, The Keystone Show, and the California Shorthorn Association Picnic. It has been a very busy year, but I wish I could have attended more. Each of these events has given me the opportunity to meet the most amazing breeders and members in the beef cattle industry. Without all of the love and generosity I have been given, I would not have been able to travel as much as I have.

A few more people I want to be sure to mention are the wonderful breeders and members within the state of Kentucky.

Farewell Some call it a responsibility, some call it an honor; but I call it truly a privilege to represent the Shorthorn Industry as your 2012-2013 National Alternate Shorthorn Lassie Queen. During my reign I traveled to nine different states for various shows, sales, and KEY Conference. Throughout my travels I have made many lifelong friendships, along with many memories that will never be forgotten.

A warm welcome and great hospitality

26

You have been so generous and supportive of me on this journey. I especially want to thank Faye Korthaus and Fran McCall.

You have both been there for me from the very beginning when I decided to become the Kentucky State Queen three years ago.

From the loaning of the tartan, to helping me with my crown, to advice on how to walk, talk, and even wave, you have been there and because of your help I have become the third National Queen to come from the state of Kentucky, which I consider to be a huge honor.

I am sad to see this year come to an end, as I walk across the green shavings for the last time, in November. I will soak in every moment and remember how blessed I am to have had this once in a lifetime opportunity. No words can ever describe how honored, thankful, and grateful I am.

I love you all so much, Jessica =

is something the Shorthorn breeders are known for. One of the most amazing aspects about being a Lassie is seeing how much of a role model you are to the younger girls of the industry. They truly look up to you with everything you do, and that is one thing that cannot be replaced.

Being role model and receiving gratitude from the breeders characterizes how much the Lassies mean to the Shorthorn breed. Working with the Junior Board

shorthorn country = october 2013

and the Shorthorn Association staff gives me a greater appreciation for everything they do for the breed. I look forward to promoting the Shorthorn breed through other avenues I take.

I encourage all the young girls who look up to the National Lassie Queens to get involved. Being a Lassie is about more than the Official “Costume”; it is about the places you go, the people you meet, and the memories that last a lifetime! =

National Shorthorn Lassie Queen Candidates Christine Natioanl Shorthorn Sinsung Lassie

The National Shorthorn Lassie Association is excited to announce the two young women vying for the 2013-2014 National Shorthorn Lassie Queen at the North American International Livestock Exposition. These young ladies will have opportunities to interact with breeders, help at all of the shows at NAILE, form bonds and learn about each other better, and interview with a panel of judges over the weekend. The National and Alternate Queen will be announced during Monday’s Open PACE show preceding the Grand Champion Female drive.

Good luck to all the young ladies entering the Queen competition this year and be sure to stop by the Lassie booth during North American Livestock International for a cup of coffee and to check these two young women’s photobooks.

The Great Lakes State’s own Sydeny Miller will be in competition for the National Lassie crown this year; and has served as Michigan’s Shorthorn Lassie Queen. She is a junior at Michigan State University majoring in Environmental Studies and Agriscience with hopes of becoming a high school agriscience teacher. She is a lifelong Shorthorn enthusiast and since she has been a litter girl, she has dreamed of serving as a Lassie Queen.

Victoria Osburn will be representing the Lone Star state after serving as the Texas Shorthorn Lassie Queen this past year and the Texas Lassie Princess prior to that. Brittany is a freshman at Texas Tech majoring in animal science with hopes of getting involved in agriculture law.

Ever since she got involved showing Shorthorns when she was in the fourth grade she knew she wanted to part of the Shorthorn Royalty to promote the breed.

Fall The air gets crisp, and the show season starts to come to a slow down, but it’s no reason to fret! Football is now on everyone’s TV and we all throw on our favorite team’s jersey to show our undying support. There is no better time to root for our team as they make their way the Super Bowl XLVIII or in college terms, of the Big Ten Network, the Rose Bowl. Which I have no doubt in knowing that my favorite NFL and college team will both make their way to the Bowls! Well, at least a girl can hope!

As we support our football teams we must remember to support the red, white, and roan. Sales start to pick up this time of season and this is the time to really get the attention of other breeders and show them how introducing Shorthorn blood to their

herd is the way to go! Our breed is truly something to be proud of. Seeing the involvement of the junior members at this year’s Junior Nationals was quite incredible and heart lifting! Not only do the juniors deserve a hand, but so do the parents for the encouragement that they have provided throughout the year. The parents are what help give juniors new experiences and gain skills that they would not have been able to develop if it wasn’t for being introduced into this breed. Not only do you help your own kids in bettering themselves, but you all have done an outstanding job in helping the Junior Board. Your support is what helps the Junior Board make it to every show; such as Junior Nationals, NAILE, and the North Western Stock Show.

Junior Board is an opportunity to

Kentucky State Fair 4-H and FFA Show Results by: Fran McCall

keep the breed going and to inspire juniors to stay involved. That’s why we need your continued support! We give a chance for younger juniors to look up to something, and we lend out a helping hand so that the junior side of the breed can be heard. So please make sure to visit us at the Leading the Legacy sale this year to help us continue with what we are doing!

I can’t wait to see new, current, and past juniors at the upcoming sales, and to see what new prospects you have to show at this year’s shows! This is truly my favorite season because it’s a whole new start to another exciting year. New calves and new ambitions pump in the blood of every junior, and I can’t wait to see what is to become of all this new excitement! See you juniors soon, and may the best football team win! =

Welcome to Leveldale

We believe the Ladies of Leveldale INVESTMENT Sale offers some for the most unique individuals and genetics seen in the beef industry!

The Bowman and Leone families have consigned GREAT additions to the sale and represent some of the best documented genetics in attractive packages in the Shorthorn World. Many do not realize the effort and constant focus on genetic improvement by these two firms joining Leveldale. Their documentation includes top carcass performance.

You will be evaluating cattle from herds with advanced genetic offerings. Leveldale prides its self in avoiding single trait selection. MULTITRAIT SELECTION for "Elastic" cattle that can adopt and thrive in many environments is our goal. RERPRODUCTION and low maintenance traits are necessities for our program!

We raise many cattle ready to join the Elite Show ranks, but they also must fit into our modest nutrition, low maintenance, calve every year program. None of our cattle in the sale have had feet trimmed. The calves received no creep feed. We want you to know what you are buying and INVEST in what you want. Calves from our last sale became state fair champions and leading foundation females and bulls in herds across the nation.

We are offering top calves and young productive females - a true production sale. We are also offering a small group of service age bulls from top females.

We bring to you for your assessment very special genetic combinations with detailed data supporting them. They also have the eye appeal and structural soundness to help take your program forward in the show ring and on the ranch or farm.

For example, two of our top cut of bred heifers in the sale offer multi-generation low maintenance, no calving assistance or other costly issues while having carcass ultrasounds in the top 1 percent of the Shorthorn breed in marbling and rib eye size. This is even more impressive in a breed that excels in carcass traits.

These same heifers and others offered could have won many fairs if fed and groomed for that target. One was in the Champion Pen at National Western Stock Show this year.

Remember what the first Les Mathers said "You INVEST your money in Good Shorthorns. You Spend it on Poor ones."

A.I. bred to Studers Taylor Made 7Y due 2/8/14. 812 is a true power cow from the heart of the Leveldale herd. She is a stout, big bodied proven producer that has served as a donor for our program. Her phenotype and disposition was admired by Lindsay Mathers...enough to be broke and ready to show, successfully, in two months at 2009 National Junior Show in Springfield, Ill. She has a less than 365 day calving interval, while successfully flushed. Not your typical show heifer/donor cow combination!

Bowman Superior Genetics Located in the heart of Shorthorn Country, BSG sees Shorthorn cattle in a little different light than simply just midwestern tradition; honest facts and the breed’s inevitable future drive our steady breeding program. With the recent progressive action and the promising vision of the American Shorthorn Association, BSG prefixed cattle are right for the times. We see the invaluable role that Shorthorn cattle can play in the beef business to make any cattleman, no matter your trade, profitable. This has proven to be true multiple times, with various BSG herd sires yielding the High Profitability Sire Group at the ASA’s Great State Feedout over recent years; including Top Hand, who represents nearly half of our offering.

We believe that the modern Shorthorn animal should do many things well and we are committed to delivering cattle that can calve on their own, express measurable and realistic maternal traits, and turnout enough growth and carcass quality that the consumer, at the end of the chain, appreciates our product on their plate. We believe producers of high quality Shorthorns have more opportunity to reap the rewards of their efforts now, more than ever. We realize that good looking, average cattle are easy to come by. But we were honored to be asked to be part of the Investment Sale because good looking, hard-working, genetically exceptional cattle are the future of the Shorthorn breed and the cattle business; and that's what Les, Rick, and Phil are presenting on October 26.

With our primary jobs off the farm, the cattle have to work for themselves. Nearly 100% of our 60 heifers calved on their own in 2013 with the exception of couple malpresentations.

Selling 100%. Owned with Sullivan Farms, Iowa. A picture perfect female MCE -1.3 that is absolutely flawless in type and kind. Only because we are trying to 7 CWT reduce our fall calving herd do we sell this female. The “Form to Function” is what defines this matriarch. I cannot think of a better opportunity for REA 0.21 anyone who wants a genetic outcross that will still make high phenotype -0.01 FAT cattle that will exhibit on the halter. Lad 079 is our in herd replacement for Alta Cedar Lad 13N that you’ll hear more from in the future. Lad 13N MARB 0.04 x red Rider 844 x Venture x Marc IV—How cool is is 079’s pedigree!

Peak View Ranch In a year when retained ownership did not offer a profit in the great state feedout for any other participant Peak View Ranch posted a positive return. Peak View Ranch has done this every year since the inception of the program. These types of accomplishments don't occur by accident and are a result of an intense breeding program combined with stringent performance testing that has occurred uninterrupted since the herd was established in 1977. 100% of Peak View's calf crop is evaluated from birth to harvest or until they enter the breeding herd and then there production is closely monitored and stringently selected to improve the production merits of this herd of cattle. Our calf crop can be viewed at Tri County Feeders after October 4th. Peak View Ranch makes no exceptions on performance. Every open female or female needing assistance at calving as a mature animal is culled annually.We experience less than a 3% dystocia rate in our mature cow herd. Peak View's herd is part of the momentum in this great breed to create and maintain functional easy fleshing high performing docile cattle with eye appeal. This herd is composed of production oriented cattle designed to provide no non sense profits for serious minded cattlemen.

Pasture exposed and confirmed pregnant to Peak View Cosmo May 1st to June 15th. This heifer should interest most. She had the

highest ratio for yearling weight and 2nd highest ratio for ADG. She has done this maintaining a 5 frame score. Jake Alden saw this heifer as a calf and she stood out then. You won’t get an opportunity at one with this pedigree with a performance background like this very often. Her dam has produced herd sires and her pedigree holds some of the breed greats.

Cosmo is a consistent calving ease sire that stamps a great pattern on his calves.

Pasture exposed and confirmed pregnant to Leveldale Resolve June 20th to August 1st. Here is a cow straight from the heart of our breeding program. She is hard to part with but we are excited to share the incredible attributes from the Sindelar program. She produced the top performing steer over purebred and crossbred steers in the ASA feedlot trial in 2012.

She also produced in the same flush Bowmen’s pick of our bred heifers.

While maintaining reasonable calving ease, she is a weaning and yearling performance power house in a frame 5 package.

Pasture exposed and confirmed pregnant to Leveldale Resolve from 1.8 June 20th to August 1st. We can’t say enough about what this cow MCE represents. She is a flush mate to the bulls that ended birth weight issues CWT -19 and restored fleshing ability to our cow herd. As a heifer calf she was Nick -0.34 Hammetts pick of her flush mates. Besides her flush mates that were REA chosen as herd sires, her steer mate won the 1st ASA feedlot trial. He 0.03 FAT posted an ADG of 4.2 pounds and a feed efficiency of 5.2 with a prime + 0.14 MARB carcass. He did all this profitably in a year that nearly all other producers experienced a loss in the trial. She has produced herd sires for some of the most discriminating cattle operations. Do not purchase this cow unless you intend to produce cattle that create a profit!

It’s no secret we have a preference for solid red cattle. Only under those circumstances would one with this pedigree and performance leave our operation. Alta Cedar Lad needs no introduction. His progeny are rare and his marbling influence and ranking on the Tri County Feeders Sire Summary says it all. He has breed changing genetics for carcass merit. This female is the epitome of the feminine production unit with all the eye appeal you could want.

Donor potential! I’m very excited to offer such a neat female for the Heifer Calf Futurity! This March heifer is backed by one very powerful pedigree, a direct daughter of, DF Waco 6W and CYT Bridget 890U a young, roan, Little Cedar Aviator daughter. VTS Bridget’s Waco 373 is wide based, deep bodied, square on her feet and legs, feminine fronted and has that look of longevity everyone wants! CYT Bridget 890U’s first calf, DF Bridget 6Y; sold to the Gilman Family from Stuart, IA; upon completion of a successful show career she has become a super nice cow for them, raising her second calf this year. After you’re done showing Bridget's Waco 373, she’s going to make an awesome/low-maintenance brood cow, just like her mother and maternal sister; you can’t go wrong here!
