Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to estimate genetic parameters for body weight (BW) at 150 d (Bw_150d), and 330 d (Bw_330d) of age and average daily weight gain (Dwg), and to estimate genetic correlations between these traits and semen characteristic traits: volume; concentration (Conc); motility in fresh, 24-h, and 48-h samples (Mot0h, Mot24h, Mot48h); and sperm defects. Data were collected at the performance test...
