To estimate the magnitude of sire of fetus (SOF) effects on productive and reproductive traits in females of Pitangueiras breed, 2287 lactations of 618 cows, daughters of 82 bulls, mated with 68 sires were analyzed. The statistical analyses were made using LSMLMW program (Mixed Model Least Squares and Maximum Likelihood Computer Program). Sire of fetus (SOF) did not affect the milk production in the subsequent lactation, however its effect was significant for the percent fat and production, days open, gestation […]
