Estimates of covariances between reproduction and growth in Australian beef cattle.

Journal of animal science - 1 Sept 1991

Meyer K, Hammond K, Mackinnon M J, Parnell P F

Abstract excerpt

Estimates of covariance components between scrotal circumference, serving capacity, days to calving, and yearling and final weight were obtained for Hereford, Angus, and Zebu cross cattle in temperate and tropical Australia. Analyses were carried out by REML employing a derivative-free algorithm and fitting bivariate animal models. Aspects of modeling and computational requirements related to the use of this...
