Single- and multiple-breed genomic evaluations for conformation traits in Canadian Alpine and Saanen dairy goats
ABSTRACT: Conformation traits are functional traits known to affect longevity, production efficiency, and profitability of dairy goats. However, genetic progress for these traits is expected to be slower than for milk production traits due to the limited number of herds participating in type classif...
