Repeatability and genetic parameters for phenotypes of methane emission in crossbred beef × dairy slaughter calves

Repeatability and genetic parameters for phenotypes of methane emission in crossbred beef × dairy slaughter calves

Crossbreeding beef sires with dairy cows to produce beef × dairy calves is becoming increasingly common. To incorporate CH4 reduction into breeding objectives, it is essential to accurately measure related traits and phenotypes in a sufficient number of animals to capture genetic variation. This pap...
