摘要: The aim of this study was to estimate heritabilities and genetic correlations for stillbirth, calving difficulty, calf size at second between thes e traits first calving. Data originated from Holstein cows 1988 2002. Bivariate threshold models using Gibbs sampling were fitted estimation the For correlation bivariate linear REML fitted. direct maternal 0.05 0.005 0.08 0.04 0.16 fo r size. these high (0.65 0.99) effects moderate (0.44 0.92) effect s. each trait ranged 0.89 0.99 eff ects 0.74 0.88 effects.
