THI Modulation of Genetic and Non-genetic Variance Components for Carcass Traits in Hanwoo Cattle

THI Modulation of Genetic and Non-genetic Variance Components for Carcass Traits in Hanwoo Cattle

The phenotype of carcass traits in beef cattle are affected by random genetic and non-genetic effects, which both can be modulated by an environmental variable such as Temperature-Humidity Index (THI), a key environmental factor in cattle production. In this study, a multivariate reaction norm model...
