Weight data of 205 (205W), 365 (365W) and 550 (550W) days old of Guzerá herds raised on Paraíba State from 1975 to 1990 were analysed. Genetic and maternal effects were estimated by Restricted Maximum Likelihood method (REML). It was used an animal model with fixed effects of year-month-sex, farm and age of dam at calving (linear and quadratic). The general means for 205W, 365W and 550W were respectively 141.85 ± 28.67 kg, 199.08 ± 48.43 kg and 252.32 ± 64.90 […]
