The aim of this study was to estimate genetic parameters for scrotal circumference at 365
(SC365) and 450 (SC450) days of age, age at first calving (AFC), ribeye area (REA), backfat …

In this study, the objective was to estimate genetic parameters of body weight at 210
(BW210) and 365 (BW365) days of age in relation to rib eye area (REA), subcutaneous back …

Stayability is a trait that has a large impact on the costs of rural properties because it is
directly related to the cow's ability to produce a certain number of calves over a given period …

Meta-analysis based on a random-effects model is used to summarise and overcome the
variability between divergent parameter estimates. We proposed a meta-analysis of …

Background The genetics of male fertility is complex and not fully understood. Male
subfertility can adversely affect the economics of livestock production. For example …

Animal temperament is a trait of economic relevance and its use as a selection criterion
requires the identification of environmental factors that influence this trait, as well as the …

The objective of this study was to estimate genetic associations between scrotal
circumference obtained at 12 (SC12; mean of 21.46±2.74 cm), 15 (SC15; mean of …

The objective of the present study was to identify genomic regions influencing economic
traits in Murrah buffaloes using weighted single step Genome Wide Association Analysis …

Fertility traits are economically important in cattle breeding programs. Scrotal circumference
(SC) measures are repeatable, easily obtained, highly heritable, and positively correlated …

The objective of this study was to investigate the association of single nucleotide
polymorphisms (SNPs) with birth weight, weight gain from birth to weaning and from …
