The increasing size of the human population is projected to result in an increase in meat
consumption. However, at the same time, the dominant position of meat as the center of …

The data presented in this review show that past selection for increased milk production in
Ireland over a 14-year period (1990 to 2003) resulted in increases in milk production per …

Key message New methods that incorporate the main and interaction effects of high-
dimensional markers and of high-dimensional environmental covariates gave increased …

Renewed interest in heat stress effects on livestock productivity derives from climate change,
which is expected to increase temperatures and the frequency of extreme weather events …

High levels of milk production in dairy cattle can have negative side effects on health and
fertility traits. This paper explores the relationships among milk yield, health, and fertility traits …

This review is devoted to the theory of collective and local pinning effects in various
disordered nonlinear driven systems. A common feature of both approaches is the …

High milk production in dairy cattle can have negative side effects on health and fertility
traits. This paper explores the genetic relationship of milk yield with health and fertility …

In Australia, dairy farming is carried out in environments that vary in many ways, including
level of feeding and climate variables such as temperature and humidity. The aim of this …

The objectives of this work were to assess alternative linear reaction norm (RN) models for
genetic evaluation of Angus cattle in Brazil. That is, we investigated the interaction between …

The reaction norm model is becoming a popular approach for the analysis of genotype×
environment interactions. In a classical reaction norm model, the expression of a genotype …
