Abstract:Breeding values (BV) for some productive and reproductive traits of Holstein Friesian under Libyan conditions were estimated and compared with those estimated under, European, and North American conditions in an attempt to assess the genotype environment interaction. To investigate the effect of managerial conditions on the same traits, the heritability coefficients were also estimated under Libyan and Dutch managements. The trait's variance and covariance components and the breeding values of sires were compu… Show more
