Heterogeneity of (co)variance among herds for backfat measures of swine.

Journal of animal science - 1 Oct 1998

See M T

Abstract excerpt

Within-herd variation for the trait of backfat was examined in swine. Backfat depth data (n=21,877) from 11 herds that had each recorded over 1,000 measures were evaluated using univariate animal model procedures in analyses for individual herds and all herds together. Variance components were es...
