Sources of sire-specific genetic variance for birth and weaning weight in Bruna dels Pirineus beef calves
This research investigated two sources of sire-specific genetic effects on the birth weight (BWT) and weaning weight (WWT) of Bruna dels Pirineus beef calves. More specifically, we focused on the influence of genes located in the non-autosomal region of the Y chromosome and the contribution of pater...
