Random Regression Models for Estimation of Covariance Functions, Genetic Parameters and Prediction of Breeding Values for Rib Eye Area in a Colombian Bos indicus-Bos taurus Multibreed Cattle Population Modelos de regresión aleatoria para la estimación de funciones de covarianza, parámetros genéticos y predicción de valores genéticos en una población bovina multirracial Bos indicus-Bos taurus en Colombia
In this paper we present an application of random regression models (RRM) to obtain restricted maximum likelihood estimates of covariance functions and predictions of breeding values for longitudinal records of rib eye area measured by ultrasound (REA) in a Colombian multibreed cattle population. Th...
