Genotype-by-environment interaction in Holstein heifer fertility traits using single-step genomic reaction norm models

Genotype-by-environment interaction in Holstein heifer fertility traits using single-step genomic reaction norm models

Abstract Background The effect of heat stress on livestock production is a worldwide issue. Animal performance is influenced by exposure to harsh environmental conditions potentially causing genotype-by-environment interactions (G × E), especially in highproducing animals. In this context, the main...
