Abstract excerpt
This study offers insight into the genetic complexity of the interaction between production and reproduction in German dairy cows. The phenotypes and genotypes of 32,352 primiparous German Holstein cows were available for investigation, and datasets (DS) of similar size were generated according to their milk yield. Five distinct DS, each including more than 6,400 animals, from lowest to highest milk yield...
