متن کاملGenetic correlations between competition traits and traits scored at breeding field-tests in Icelandic horses
Relationships between breeding field-test traits and competition traits were studied to investigate whether the latter could be usefully included in the genetic evaluation of Icelandic horses. The current method of genetic evaluation is based on records from breeding field-tests only. The breeding field-test data included 16401 individual records of Icelandic horses evaluated in 11 countries du...
