Genetic parameters for lameness and claw and leg diseases in dairy cows.

Journal of dairy science - 1 May 2013

Weber A, Stamer E, Junge W, Thaller G

Abstract excerpt

Lameness in dairy cows is a serious welfare and economic problem in dairy production. The majority of all lameness cases seem to stem from claw and leg diseases. Indirect selection on claw health potentially might be feasible with lameness as indicator trait. Therefore, the genetic parameters for the 2 traits were estimated by applying both linear and threshold models. In addition, the impact of environmental...
