Random regression models using different functions to model test-day milk yield of Brazilian Holstein cows.
We analyzed 152,145 test-day records from 7317 first lactations of Holstein cows recorded from 1995 to 2003. Our objective was to model variations in test-day milk yield during the first lactation of Holstein cows by random regression model (RRM), using various functions in order to obtain adequate and parsimonious models for the estimation of genetic parameters. Test-day milk yields were...
متن کاملEvaluation of Test Day Milk Yield in Iranian Primiparous Holstein Using Different Random Regression Models
Several functions were used to model fixed and random part of the lactation curve in Iranian primiparous Holstein cows using random regression analysis. Legendre polynomials of orders three and four as well as parametric lactation curve for the random part of the first lactation milk production were compared to find the best model. The models differed in fixed regression lactation curve part an...
متن کاملAnalysis of Test Day Milk Yield by Random Regression Models and Evaluation of Persistency in Iranian Dairy Cows
Variace / covariance components of 227118 first lactaiom test-day milk yield records belonged to 31258 Iranian Holstein cows were estimated using nine random regression models. Afterwards, different measures of persistency based on estimation breeding value were evaluated. Three functions were used to adjust fixed lactation curve: Ali and Schaeffer (AS), quadratic (LE3) and cubic (LE4) order of...
متن کاملestimation of genetic parameters for milk yield using random regression test day model in iranian holstein
in this study a total of 171,360 monthly test day milk records obtained from first lactation of iranian holstein cattle (three times a day milking) distributed in 96 herds and calved from 1999 to 2008 were used to estimate genetic parameters and to predict breeding values of the animals. the data was analyzed using random regression test day model. the results showed that average of heritabilit...
متن کاملRandom regression models using different functions to model milk flow in dairy cows.
We analyzed 75,555 test-day milk flow records from 2175 primiparous Holstein cows that calved between 1997 and 2005. Milk flow was obtained by dividing the mean milk yield (kg) of the 3 daily milking by the total milking time (min) and was expressed as kg/min. Milk flow was grouped into 43 weekly classes. The analyses were performed using a single-trait Random Regression Models that included di...
