Variance and covariance estimates for weaning weight of Senepol cattle.

Journal of animal science - 1 Oct 1991

Wright D W, Johnson Z B, Brown C J, Wildeus S

Abstract excerpt

Variance and covariance components were estimated for weaning weight from Senepol field data for use in the reduced animal model for a maternally influenced trait. The 4,634 weaning records were used to evaluate 113 sires and 1,406 dams on the island of St. Croix. Estimates of direct additive genetic variance (sigma 2A), maternal additive genetic variance (sigma 2M), covariance between direct and maternal...
