Genetic parameters for carcase measurements and age at slaughter in commercial cattle.

Animal : an international journal of animal bioscience - 1 Feb 2021

Pritchard T C, Wall E, Coffey M P

Abstract excerpt

Genetic parameters were estimated for cold carcase weight (CCW), carcase conformation (CON), carcase fat class (FAT), age at slaughter (AGE) and average daily carcase gain (ADCG) in 14 common UK breeds of cattle. These included crossbred animals but purebred datasets were also analysed for the most populous sire-breeds. Heritability estimates for beef breeds that were significant ranged from 0.24 to 0.44, 0.12 to...
