Heritability and genetic correlations between enteric methane production and concentration recorded by GreenFeed and sniffers on dairy cows

ABSTRACT: To reduce methane (CH4) emissions of dairy cows by animal breeding, CH4 measurements have to be recorded on thousands of individual cows. Currently, several techniques are used to phenotype cows for CH4, differing in costs and applicability. However, there is uncertainty about the agreemen...
