Genotype by environment interaction for somatic cell score in Holstein cattle of southern Brazil via reaction norms

Genotype by environment interaction for somatic cell score in Holstein cattle of southern Brazil via reaction norms

Objective The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic behavior of a population of Holstein cattle in response to the variation of environmental temperature by analyzing the effects of genotype by environment interaction (GEI) through reaction norms for the somatic cell score (SCS). Metho...
