The Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia (RBZ) is a publication dedicated to the broad field of Animal Science. We publish high-quality, original scientific research that spans across diverse areas within the discipline. The scope of RBZ encompasses a wide range of topics, including aquaculture, biometeorology and animal welfare, forage crops and grasslands, animal and forage plants breeding and genetics, animal reproduction, ruminant and non-ruminant nutrition, meat science and muscle biology, precision livestock, and animal production systems and agribusiness.

A genome of 3.000 centimorgans was simulated for a single quantitative trait governed by 800 loci with two alleles per locus. According to the genomic structure proposed, 1,500 males and 1,500 females constituted the base population which was used to form two (small and large) initial populations. Two types (only additive genetic variance and both additive genetic and environmental variances) and three variability levels (high, medium and low) of heterogeneity of variances were inserted in the initial populations. Variance components […]
