Changes in genetic trends in US dairy cattle since the implementation of genomic selection

ABSTRACT: Genomic selection increases accuracy and decreases generation interval, accelerating genetic changes in populations. Assumptions of genetic improvement must be addressed to quantify the magnitude and direction of change. Genetic trends of US dairy cattle breeds were examined to determine t...
