this publication. I welcome them to our team & look
forward to their professionalism in bringing you the
news of the SD Simmental Association.
The January 2010 issue of the South Dakota SimmenTeller
marks the first issue produced by EDJE Technologies. We
hope that you enjoy looking through this issue. There
are some tremendous cattle advertised throughout
the magazine, as well as some very interesting articles
provided by Marty Ropp, ASA Director of Field Services.
Please make note of the South Dakota Simmental
Association’s Annual Meeting held in Rapid City on
February 5, 2010 in conjunction with the Black Hills
Stock Show. If you have any questions or would like
more information regarding this event, please contact
Steve Reimer at 605-734-6110.
Our annual meeting will be held this year at the Black

Making Sense Out of All the
Genetic Defect Buzz
An examination of a number of recently surfaced
bovine genetic defects and what can be done to limit
their impact on the beef industry.
now allow us to confirm cases and build diagnostic
tests for identifying defect carrier individuals relatively
quickly. In fact, advanced DNA testing is our industry’s
number one tool for managing and minimizing the effect
of defects on breeding populations. Because of the
availability and effectiveness of new age genomic testing,
we need not fear these deleterious genes, nor panic
and overreact to their presence as breeders of the past
were forced to do often wiping out entire valuable lines
of seedstock to control the spread of single genes.
As with any significant challenge to our business,
there is substantial misinformation and half-truths
associated with the hype surrounding genetic
abnormalities. Let’s start with some half-truths. It is
common to hear that selection for certain traits has
brought about these unwanted consequences. The true
half of this argument is that intense genetic selection
surrounding a single individual or line increases the gene
frequency of all the genes of an individual both positive
and negative. Selection concentrates genes. Therefore, if
a highly used individual in a breed or line happens to be
By Marty Ropp, ASA Director of
Field Services
Unless you have been hiding under
a rock lately, you are well aware
of the publicity surrounding “new” genetic defects
that are significantly affecting both the commercial
cattle business and the business of several breed
organizations including our own. The word new is in
“parenthesis” only because few if any of these genetic
mutations are actually recent in origin. Several have
very long histories of reports while other mutations
have perhaps only occurred in the past 20 years.
These abnormalities have become big news very
quickly because of the number of influential animals
and pedigrees implicated as defect carriers. Adding to
the attention, are genomic technology advances that

Genetic Defect Buzz
TH — Tibial Hemimelia — Originally identified
in Shorthorn and perhaps Galloway lines more
than 30 years ago, this defect has recently become
common because of increased line selection centered
around offending animals. Spread of this defect to
other breeds has been accelerated by the interest in
Shorthorn genetics for club calf production. There
are claims that carrier animals have phenotypes more
similar to ideals for the show steer business such as
having more hair than defect free relatives, but this has
not been substantiated.
a carrier of an unwanted genetic defect, the frequency
of its deleterious gene is increased in addition to the
frequency of the desired genes. Using that same logic
one could erroneously blame artificial insemination
or high-quality genetic evaluation for creating the
problem. For example, it is very common to hear that
a particular line of Angus cattle has genetic defects
because breeders selected too much for marbling.
Certainly there is a specific high marbling line that has
been proven to carry genetic defects just as there are
high marbling lines without defect. More likely, a sire
line that was proven to be superior for certain traits,
by chance, happened also to be genetic defect carriers.
When these ancestors became extremely popular,
the genetic defect frequency increased substantially
in that breed population and the rest is history. It
is possible, however, to have unwanted genes linked
to desirable genes or gene effects. In the case of the
halothane gene in the world of pork production.
There is some unproven rhetorical evidence that
Tibial Hemimelia may be linked to certain “show
ring desired” phenotypes that led to unusually rapid
increased gene frequency in certain populations, but
most of the time they are accidental consequence
associated with intense use and or popularity of an
individual in a selected line.
I, too, have seen written that line breeding or
inbreeding is the culprit. Again, just a half-truth. In fact,
inbreeding individuals is one of the fastest ways to
discover genetic abnormalities in a population before
an individual sire or dam can become highly influential.
The truth part is that inbreeding increases the
potential for a single recessive gene to be expressed
in an affected calf because it increases the likelihood of
creating homozygous individuals for a trait, because of
individuals represented in recent generations on both
sides of the pedigree. Without significant inbreeding,
genetic defects can and have hidden in populations for
centuries before selection and or circumstances bring
their effects to bear. Often by that time the defect has
spread to so many lines and individuals its effects on
breeding populations are substantial.
Let’s go over the list of some high profile defects
with some candor regarding their origins and spread.
To date all of these genetic defects are considered
to be simple recessives and are therefore inherited
in a similar fashion to horns or red coat color which
are also single gene autosomal recessives, but with
less serious consequences. In depth descriptions
and genetic details regarding these and other genetic
defects are available at www.simmental.org.

Calf with tibial hemimelia. Note short
malformed hind limbs and long curly hair.
PHA — Pulmonary Hypoplasia with Anasarca —
Primarily identified with offending animals originating
in the Maine Anjou herdbook, this defect has also been
concentrated due to carrier lines becoming popular.
It too has spread to other populations primarily as a
result of breeding for composite club calf production.
AM — Bovine Arthrogyrposis Multiplex Congenita
— More commonly known as “Curly Calf,” this lethal
defect has been identified in a significant number of
popular Angus pedigrees. The relatively high gene
frequency of AM in Angus lines is primarily due to
the popularity and subsequent influence of G A R
Precision 1680 and his sire Rito 9J9 of B156 7T26
in the American Angus herdbook. As an unintended
consequence of concentrating the positive genes
offered by 1680 and 9J9’s descendants, AM was also
selected for. The use of CA Future Direction 5321
and his descendents to make SimAngus has been
the primary source of this deleterious gene in the
Simmental herdbook.
Cases of AM
NH — Neuropathic Hydrocephalus — This
lethal recessive trait has also been associated with
the descendants of GAR Precision 1680. Unlike AM,
that was passed down from Rito 9J9 of B156 7T26,
this sire may be the point of mutation for this form

Genetic Defect Buzz
DNA tests for these (not including Fawn Calf)
and other genetic defects can be completed relatively
quickly and are extremely effective for individual
screening. This makes dealing with serious genetic
defects far easier today than in the past. Many defect
free individuals with immense genetic value have
already been identified within carrier lines. In some
cases, high value carrier parents can still be utilized to
make more valuable defect free progeny for the future.
Decisions need to be made based on the science
available and not the immediate emotion of panic
associated with past experience or the fear of short
term negative public opinion.Yes, these defects need
to be minimized in populations by aggressive selection
for free individuals, but the truth is that few if any of
these genes will ever be eradicated despite propaganda
to the contrary. For example, most breed registries
run mis-parentage rates of 3%-6% when randomly
DNA tested. Therefore some offending individuals
have already passed the genetic defect screening gates
because their erroneous pedigrees were not suspected
and thus not tested. Though the risk is very low, this
is part of the rational for testing all AI sires and donor
females for parentage and why the ASA screens all
of the top 50 sires in the breed for available genetic
defect tests, it’s just good risk management.
It is crucial that carrier animals are identified so
the offending genes can be selected against and not
just the individuals or ancestry. The ASA genetic defect
policy helps breeders to do just that. It warns of but
does not disqualify potential vectors and provides
genetic roadmaps to understand which animals need
to be tested or create reasonable concern without
legislating breeding programs or options. We will
combine DNA technologies available today with
market pressure to reduce genetic defects to make a
better and more defect free product today and in the
future. So, make wise, informed decisions regarding
genetic defects, use all the tools available to produce
genetic packages with increasing value while protecting
both your customers and your business.
If you have an individual that you believe to be
genetically defective, check out the ASA website www.
simmental.org for steps you can take to report the
situation and for procedures to collect photographic
evidence and DNA for potential diagnosis. Most birth
defects are congenital and not truly inherited genetic
defects, but reporting abnormalities helps protect our
membership and customers from long term challenges.
of Hydrocephalus. It is extremely rare to identify the
original mutation point for any genetic defect. AM
and NH do not appear to be related, but these genes
can actually appear together in the same animal as in
the case of several Angus sires including CA Future
Direction 5321. In the case of animals that carry both
defects the probability that progeny of these sires or
dams are free from both defects when bred to defect
free animals is only 1 in 4. When an individual carries
only 1 defect, one half of the progeny will be defect
free when mated to clean individuals.
OS — Osteopetrosis — More commonly known
as “Marble Bone” this defect can be most commonly
found in several Red Angus pedigrees, but has been
historically documented in Angus cattle as well. Some
question whether the mutation is the same in both
breeds but to date no one has confirmed a difference.
The two most widely used offenders identified in the
Red Angus registry are Buf CRK Romeo L081 and
LCHMN Grand Canyon 2419J. With the popularities
of these two sires because of the positive traits they
offered, the unintended spreading of genetic defects
is regrettable and most probably unrelated to other
traits.
HT — Hypotrichosis (Hairless Calf) and IE
Idiopathic Epilepsy — Both appear to originate from
Hereford populations. Though these deleterious
genes occur in a very low frequency in the Simmental
herdbook, many original US Simmental animals were
bred up using Hereford cows as a base. DNA tests are
currently available for each of these defects.
Calf with Hypotrichosis.
FC — Fawn Calf — This defect is listed last
because very little documented information regarding
FC is currently available. It is however found in
significant frequency in several popular Angus lines,
but to date those offending lines are not publicly
confirmed. Currently, no DNA test is available for Fawn
Calf. FC is not lethal in all cases but has debilitating
effects on calf mobility and growth rate.
