Genetic Parameters for Level and Change of Body Condition Score and Body Weight in Dairy Cows [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2002 (Co)variance components for body condition score (BCS), body weight (BW), BCS change, BW change, and milk yield traits were estimated. The data analyzed included 6646 multiparous Holstein-Friesian cows with records for BCS, BW, and(or) milk yield at different stages of lactation from 74 dairy herds throughout Southern Ireland.

Genetic relationships between calving interval and body condition score conditional on milk yield [PDF]
, 2002 Body condition score (BCS) is a useful tool in assessing the energy status of dairy cattle. Previous research has shown that it is heritable and genetically correlated to reproductive performance.

Genetic Relationship of Body Energy and Blood Metabolites with Reproduction in Holstein Cows [PDF]
, 2008 Body condition score (BCS), energy content (EC), cumulative effective energy balance (CEEB), and blood serum concentrations of glucose, beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), and nonesterified fatty acids ( NEFA) were measured throughout first lactation in 497 ...

Genetic evaluation of fertility using direct and correlated traits [PDF]
, 2003 Poor fertility has become a major reason for involuntary culling of dairy cows in the United Kingdom. Calving interval (CI) and body condition score (BCS) are recorded, heritable, genetically correlated with each other, and could be used to extend the ...

DEVELOPING AN ALGORITHM FOR BODY CONDITION SCORING OF DAIRY COWS
Agricultural engineering, 2022 Cow’s body condition scoring (BCS) based on neural network algorithms is necessary to monitor the health and productivity of the animals. To develop an algorithm for assessing the physiological fatness of dairy cows according to the parameters of the fermur heads, the sacrum and the hunger hollow, the authors studied eighty animals on a farm of the ...
