Estimation of genetic parameters and evaluation of test-day milk production in sheep

Genetic parameters and breeding values were estimated based on 11 708 daily milk yields from 2255 lactations (1351 sheep, 19 different flocks) between the years 2004 and 2010. The pedigree covered 2334 individuals, including both the recorded animals and their known ancestors. The fixed effects were...
