Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of including concomitant body weight and(or) a random dam effect in genetic evaluation models on variance component estimates and standard error of prediction for scrotal circumference (SC) at 6, 8, 10, and 12 mo. Variance components and average standard errors of prediction were compared under models differing in either the number of related traits (M11 [SC], M12...
