Direct and maternal genetic covariances by age of dam for weaning weight.

Journal of animal science - 1 Aug 1996

Van Vleck L D, Gregory K E, Bennett G L

Abstract excerpt

Weaning weights of calves of dams at ages in years of 2, 3, and older were modeled to be three separate traits. Fixed effects were sex of calf-year of birth combinations for nine pure breeds and sex of calf-year of birth-generation for three composite populations. Random effects fitted for each trait were correlated direct and maternal genetic, maternal permanent environmental, and temporary environmental. Direct...
