[ 1 ] - Bayesian Inference of (Co) Variance Components and Genetic Parameters for Economic Traits in Iranian Holsteins via Gibbs Sampling

The aim of this study was using Bayesian approach via Gibbs sampling (GS) for estimating genetic parameters of production, reproduction and health traits in Iranian Holstein cows. Data consisted of 320666 first- lactation records of Holstein cows from 7696 sires and 260302 dams collected by the animal breeding center of Iran from year 1991 to 2010. (Co) variance components were estimated using ...
