Genomic selection has been widely implemented in many livestock breeding programs, but
it remains incipient in buffalo. Therefore, this study aimed to (1) estimate variance …

Reggiana is a local cattle breed from northern Italy known for its rusticity and profitability,
due to the production of branded Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. To ensure the persistence …

This study aimed to investigate the relationship among somatic cell scores (SCS) and
