Genetic parameters for body condition score and its relationship with type and production traits in Swiss Holsteins.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Nov 2003

Kadarmideen H N, Wegmann S

Abstract excerpt

The objectives of this study were to estimate the genetic and environmental parameters between body condition score (BCS) and 27 conformation and 3 production traits in Swiss Holstein cattle. The dataset consisted of 31,500 first-lactation cows, which were daughters of 545 sires in 1867 herds. Bivariate sire models with relationships among sires were used to estimate parameters. Least squares means for BCS by...
