ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate genotype × environment (G×E) interactions in Guzerá breed animals for 305-day first-lactation cumulative yields (kg) of milk (MY305), fat (FY305), and protein (PY305). We used 6823 records of MY305, 2466 records of FY305, and 1870 records of PY305. The contemporary groups (CG) were created considering herd and year of calving. The analyses were performed in two steps. In the first step, environmental effects on phenotypes were estimated by using a multi-trait model ignoring G×E […]

It was evaluated statistical models with different assumptions to define the one that best describes the presence of genotype × environment interaction on adjusted post-weaning weight gain (PWG345) of Hereford cattle, through the study of reactions norms to the environment, obtained by random regression using a Bayesian approach. Four reaction norms hierarchical models (RNHM) were used through the INTERGEN program. The RNHMK uses the solutions of contemporary groups previously estimated by the standard animal model (AM) and considers them as […]
