<b>Heterogeneous genetic (co)variances in simulated closed herds under selection</b> - 10.4025/actascianimsci.v34i1.10934

Assuming that selection in closed herds can promote reduction in additive genetic variance, multiple regression models were used to estimate this change in additive genetic (co)variance component, over the years when the selection was done. Weights at 550 days (W550) were studied using simulated dat...
