Estimation of genetic parameters for body weight in Charolais calves in Slovenia

The aim of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters for growth traits of Charolais calves in Slovenia. Analysed traits included birth weight (BW), weight at the beginning (WB) and at the end of grazing season (WE), as well as yearling weight (WY). Data were collected on 340 Charolais cal...
