Abstract excerpt

Records were collected in an experimental herd over an 11-year period from purebred Charolais heifers (n=351), cows (n=615) and young entire bulls (n=383). The objective of the study was to estimate the genetic relationship between the components of female ovarian activity (age at puberty and postpartum anoestrus length), their growth rate and body condition score and beef traits measured on related bulls. Two...
