Sex effects on breed of sire differences for birth, weaning, and yearling weights.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jun 1998

Van Vleck L D, Cundiff L V

Abstract excerpt

Weights of males and females can be considered to be correlated traits with different averages and variances. This study attempted to determine whether defining traits as expressed in males or in females would change estimates of breed of sire differences needed to calculate across-breed factors for adjustment of within-breed EPD to across-breed EPD. Records from the US Meat Animal Research Center of progeny of...
