Genetic analysis of milk production traits of Tunisian Holsteins using random regression test-day model with Legendre polynomials

Objective The objective of this study was to estimate genetic parameters of milk, fat, and protein yields within and across lactations in Tunisian Holsteins using a random regression test-day (TD) model. Methods A random regression multiple trait multiple lactation TD model was used to estimate gene...
