Comparison of Different Lactation Curve Models to Describe Lactation Curve in Moroccan Holstein-Friesian Dairy Cows
In this study, the incomplete gamma function, an exponential function, a mixed-log function and a polynomial function were evaluated to describe the lactation curve in Moroccan Holstein-Friesian dairy cows. Data from 1990 to 1999, comprising 77130 monthly milk yields of 6029 dairy cows in 280 dairy herds, were used. Edits were carried out by considering the lactation length (5 d and
متن کاملFactors affecting milk yield and ewe’s lactation curves estimated with test-day models
Test-day records of purebred Tsigai, Improved Valachian and Lacaune ewes were analysed with a general linear model in order to investigate the effects of flock-test day, lactation number, days in milk, litter size and month of lambing. In total, 121 576 (Tsigai), 247 902 (Improved Valachian) and 2 196 (Lacaune) test-day records gathered over the period 1995–2005 were included in the analyses. A...
متن کاملEstimation of genetic parameters of weekly test-day milk yields and first lactation 305-day milk yield in Murrah buffaloes
Aim: The aim was to estimate genetic parameters of weekly test-day (TD) milk yields and first lactation 305-day milk yield (FL305DY) in Murrah buffaloes. Materials and Methods: The data on 39059 weekly test-day milk yield (WTDY) records during first lactation of 961 Murrah buffaloes calved from 1977 to 2012 and sired by 101 bulls maintained in an organized farm at National Dairy Research Instit...
متن کاملEvaluation of Test Day Milk Yield in Iranian Primiparous Holstein Using Different Random Regression Models
Several functions were used to model fixed and random part of the lactation curve in Iranian primiparous Holstein cows using random regression analysis. Legendre polynomials of orders three and four as well as parametric lactation curve for the random part of the first lactation milk production were compared to find the best model. The models differed in fixed regression lactation curve part an...
متن کاملRandom regression models using different functions to model test-day milk yield of Brazilian Holstein cows.
We analyzed 152,145 test-day records from 7317 first lactations of Holstein cows recorded from 1995 to 2003. Our objective was to model variations in test-day milk yield during the first lactation of Holstein cows by random regression model (RRM), using various functions in order to obtain adequate and parsimonious models for the estimation of genetic parameters. Test-day milk yields were...
