ciallaíonn “luach pórúcháin” meastóireacht ar an éifeacht ionchasach a bheadh ag géinitíopa ainmhí phórúcháin ar shaintréithe ar leith ina shliocht;
‘breeding value’ means an estimate of the expected effect of the genotype of a breeding animal on a given characteristic in its progeny;
(a) í a shainiú trí na saintréithe a léiriú a thig as géinitíopa áirithe nó as cónasc áirithe géinitíopaí,
(a) defined by the expression of the characteristics resulting from a given genotype or combination of genotypes,
(a) gur ón gcineál eile sin (dá ngairtear an ‘cineál tosaigh’ san Acht seo), nó ó chineál ar ón gcineál tosaigh is mó a dhíorthaítear é féin, is mó a dhíorthaítear an cineál bundíorthaithe, agus go léiríonn sé i gcónaí na sainghnéithe bunúsacha a thig as géinitíopa nó as cónasc géinitíopaí an chineáil tosaigh,
(a) the essentially derived variety is predominantly derived from that other variety (in this Act referred to as the 'initial variety') or from a variety that is itself predominantly derived from the initial variety, while retaining the expression of the essential characteristics that result from the genotype or combination of genotypes of the initial variety,
(c) go bhfuil sé, seachas na difríochtaí a thig as an ngníomh díorthaithe, i gcomhréir leis an gcineál tosaigh i léiriú na sainghnéithe bunúsacha a thig as géinitíopa nó as cónasc géinitíopaí an chineáil tosaigh, agus
(c) it conforms, except for the differences which result from the act of derivation, to the initial variety in the expression of the essential characteristics that result from the genotype or combination of genotypes of the initial variety, and
An géinitíopa agus, i gcás inar féidir, an pór de gach ainmhí caorach agus gabhair a bhfuil toradh dearfach maidir le TSE ina leith, agus a shampláiltear i gcomhréir le Caibidil A, Cuid II, pointe 8.”
The genotype, and, where possible, the breed, of each ovine and caprine animal found positive to TSE and sampled in accordance with Chapter A, Part II, point 8.’;
