Correlações genéticas entre medidas de perímetro escrotal e características produtivas e reprodutivas de fêmeas da raça Nelore

TL;DR: It is suggested that selection to improve female fertility efficiency based on SC18 would be more effective than by using SC12, because of the higher genetic correlation estimates between SC18 and female traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of genetic parameters for body weights, scrotal circumference, and testicular volume measured at different ages in Nellore cattle.

TL;DR: There is no need to change the selection criterion from scrotal circumference to testicular volume in genetic breeding programs of Zebu breeds, according to the REML method applying an animal model in single- and multiple-trait analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Herdabilidades e correlações entre pesos do nascimento à idade adulta em rebanhos da raça Nelore

TL;DR: The heritability estimates obtained in the multivariate analysis were high, especially at 3 and 5 years of age, suggesting better partition of genetic and environmental variances compared to uni and bivariate analyses but, high computer demands can still hinder its use in large databases.
