The Presence of genotype by environment (GxE) interaction over different ages across
growth trajectory in different environments leads to alteration in sires ranking, it may cause …

In the current paper, restricted maximum likelihood estimates of covariance functions for
growth records from birth to 360 days of age in Kordi sheep population were estimated using …

The objective of the study was to plot the trajectory of the growth curve in Jamunapari goat
using B-spline (BS) function and compare it with the Legendre polynomial (LP) function of …

The genotype by environment interaction alters the ranking of the animals at different ages
in life due to the changing environment. This affects the selection efficiency of the breeding …

The objective of the current study was to estimate covariance components of growth at
different ages from birth to yearling in Barki lambs. A total of 16,496 records for body weights …

Simple Summary Animal breeders are always interested in improving the economically
important traits such as growth by selecting and breeding genetically superior animals. The …

The current study sought to genetically assess the lactation curve of Alpine× Beetal
crossbred goats through the application of random regression models (RRM). The objective …

The experiment was conducted to estimate genetic parameters and breeding value of pre-
weaning and postweaning growth traits in Landrace× Desi (indigenous) crossbred pigs …

Growth, being a repeatable trait, is found to be more suitable for random regression models
(RRM). Especially in a field performance recording system the nature of data is …

The variability in growth traits provides enormous scope for improvement through selection
and breeding. However, growth is a longitudinal trait measured repeatedly on the animal …
