Random Regression Model for Genetic Evaluation and Early Selection in the Iranian Holstein Population

Random Regression Model for Genetic Evaluation and Early Selection in the Iranian Holstein Population

The objective of this study was to use a model to predict breeding values for sires and cows at an early stage of the first lactation of cows and progeny groups in the Iranian Holstein population to enable the early selection of sires. An additional objective was to estimate genetic and phenotypic p...
