Genetic effects of heat stress on milk fatty acids in Brazilian Holstein cattle

Genetic effects of heat stress on milk fatty acids in Brazilian Holstein cattle

ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to estimate covariance components of milk fatty acids (FA) and to compare the genomic estimated breeding values under general and heat-stress effects. Data consisted of 38,762 test-day records from 6,344 Holstein cows obtained from May 2012 through January 2018 on 4...
