Genetic evaluation of the scrotal circumference of beef bulls in the Czech Republic

Abstract: The objective of the present study was to estimate the genetic parameters for the scrotal circumference of bulls of beef breeds in the Czech Republic. The used database for the years 1996–2020 comprised information on the scrotal circumference measurements from 22 065 bulls of 19 pure breeds and crossbred animals of the Beef Simmental, Charolais, and Hereford breeds. After adjustments, the database contained 16 404 records. To test the influence of systematic fixed effects, the GLM/SAS procedure using the leas… Show more

“…It is known that the sexual behaviour of sire is not affected by their sperm mass and physical and morphological aspects (De Oliveire et al, 2007). It is affected by parameters (length, width, depth, thickness, circumference of scrotum, and total testicular volume (Gippolito et al, 2019;Novotná et al, 2022), body structure type, and expressiveness of the meat forms (Ugnivenko & Koropets, 2021).…”
