Genetic parameters for first lactation dairy traits in the Alpine and Saanen goat breeds using a random regression test-day model
Abstract Background Random regression models (RRM) are widely used to analyze longitudinal data in genetic evaluation systems because they can better account for time-course changes in environmental effects and additive genetic values of animals by fitting the test-day (TD) specific effects.
