Combining selection for carcass quality, body weight, and milk traits in dairy cattle.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Apr 1999

Liinamo A E, Van Arendonk J A

Abstract excerpt

Alternative selection strategies were evaluated for breeding for carcass quality, body weight, and milk traits in dairy cattle. The efficiency of different alternatives was evaluated by comparing predicted genetic responses in individual traits as well as in the aggregate genotype. Particular interest was paid to the loss of response with indices that partially or totally ignored genetic correlations between...
