Estimation of genetic parameters for postweaning growth traits in crossbred Angus x Zebu cattle

Estimation of genetic parameters for postweaning growth traits in crossbred Angus x Zebu cattle

<div>The objective of this study was to verify the effect of individual heterozygosity on weights at 365 (W365) and 550 (W550) days of age, and to estimate the heritability of these traits and the breeding values of animals of different breed compositions involving Angus and Zebu breeds in ord...
