Evidence of additive genetic variation for major milk proteins in dairy cows: A meta‐analysis
Navid Ghavi Hossein‐Zadeh
Abstract:In the past, there have been reports of genetic parameters for milk proteins in various dairy cattle populations. The high variability among genetic parameter estimates has been caused by this. This study aimed to use a random‐effects meta‐analysis model to compile published estimates of genetic parameter for major milk proteins of α‐lactalbumin, β‐lactoglobulin, sum of whey proteins, casein, αs1‐casein, αs2‐casein, β‐casein, and κ‐casein in dairy cows. The study used a total of 140 heritability and 256 geneti… Show more
