Variance component estimation and multitrait genetic evaluation for type traits of dairy goats.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Mar 1997

Luo M F, Wiggans G R, Hubbard S M

Abstract excerpt

Covariance components for final score and 13 linear type traits of dairy goats were estimated by multitrait REML using canonical transformation with an animal model. Data were 10,932 type appraisals from 1988 through 1994 from herds with > or = 40 appraisals. Heritabilities were estimated as 0.27 for final score, 0.52 for stature, 0.29 for strength, 0.24 for dairyness, 0.38 for teat diameter, 0.21 for rear legs,...
