Genetic analysis of litter size and number of kids born alive across parities in Spanish goat breeds using a random regression model

Genetic parameters of litter size (LS) and number of kids born alive (NBA) were estimated across parities in Florida and Payoya goat breeds using a threshold random regression model (RRM). We analysed the reproductive records for the Florida and Payoya breeds separately, and a total of 130.849 and 6...
