For Linechasers
Import From Text Pedigrees
Do you ever find yourself entering a text pedigree into your database by hand? Not with Breeders Assistant - it can import them directly - adding the separate records for new ancestors and merging known ancestors with existing records. And it can import many different styles of text pedigree. You can even design templates for new pedigree formats.
Breedings Report
BA can produce a report showing all the breedings of a given animal, listed in various ways e.g. sorted by date of birth, or by name of opposite parent. The offspring of each breeding are listed.
Web Pedigree Databases
Create dynamic web pedigree databases using the Alfirin system.
Inbreeding & Common Ancestors
BA has very fast calculation of Wright's coefficient of inbreeding, to a maximum of 60 generations. We can produce reports of ancestor circularities (self-parenting) - individually for specific records or across a whole database. BA doesn't just calculate imbreeding for a single animal at a time - you can even tabulate it for all animals in the database. You can create reports on common ancestors, view their individual contributions to the inbreeding coefficient, tag the common ancestors, and more.
Text Pedigrees
BA creates configurable text pedigrees to 16 generations. Ideal for use in email or mailing lists. BA can even import text pedigrees directly into your database.
Advanced Database Features
We provide various tools for maintaining your database. E.g. a means to run various inconsistency checks such as females recorded as sires. Various global operations are available such as global search & replace, case conversion and field transfer.
Publisher Feature
The 'publisher feature' is a means to create restricted access BA databases. Its designed for people and organizations who wish to distribute animal data to third parties with restrictions on its use and further redistribution. Typical uses include breed clubs who wish to distribute club breed data to their members whilst being sure it cannot be redistributed to others. Please see also our open data access policy.
Genotype Verification
Breeders Assistant can detect genetic inconsistencies between parent and offspring - e.g. detect when an animal's genotype is impossible given the stated genotypes of the parents.
Reverse Pedigrees
Reverse pedigrees are specially formatted lists of descendants structured like a family tree. Include up to 8 generations of descendants.
Text Reports
Breeders Assistant has a wide range of text reports including: text pedigrees, ancestor lists, common ancestors, inbreeding analysis, ancestor analysis, descendant analysis, 'linechaser' style ancestor listings, breedings report, and more...
Tagging
Tagging is a means of marking records so that you can then apply a given operation to all tagged records in a single step. Tags can be applied manually or you can tag the results of searches.
