Genetic evaluation of growth of Kenya Boran cattle using random regression models.

Tropical animal health and production - 1 Oct 2007

Abstract excerpt

Data consisting of 18 884 weight records collected from 1273 Boran cattle from birth to 24 months of age were used to estimate covariance functions and genetic parameters for growth of Boran cattle using random regression (RR) models under a situation of small herd size and inconsistent recording. The RR model fitted quadratic Legendre polynomials of age at recording for additive genetic and permanent...
