Breeding values were predicted for test day milk yields of Caracu cows, using univariate model (TDMO) and random regression model (RRM). The ranks were based on traditional 305-day milk yield breeding values (PTA305). For RRM, breeding values were predicted for individual test-day milk yield and for sum of all test-days (RRM305). Spearman correlation were estimated among predicted breeding values from different methodos (TDMO and RRM) and the coincidence of rank of 10% best sires were verified. Genetic lactation curves of […]
