Comparative analysis of SNP candidates in disparate milk yielding river buffaloes using targeted sequencing [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 River buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) milk plays an important role in economy and nutritious diet in several developing countries. However, reliable milk-yield genomic markers and their functional insights remain unexposed.

Dynamics of correlation coefficients of economic and productive characteristics depending on the age of cows [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 In 2002, a new Ural type of black-and-white breed was officially registered. Animals of this type have high productivity indicators, but at the same time there is a decrease in the productive longevity of the breeding stock.

Associations between sole ulcer, white line disease and digital dermatitis and the milk yield of 1824 dairy cows on 30 dairy cow farms in England and Wales from February 2003–November 2004 [PDF]
, 2008 The milk yields of 1824 cows were used to investigate the effect of lesion-specific causes of lameness, based on farmer treatment and diagnosis of lame cows, on milk yield.

Estimation of milk yield in the rat [PDF]
Laboratory Animals, 1970 The biases inherent in the use of the growth curves of the litter and of milking devices to estimate milk yield in the rat are discussed. A method is described in which the pups are separated from their dams for a period of hours and are then allowed to suck for about 60 minutes.

Nature, 1953 IN the early stages the growth of the lamb is largely dependent on the milk yield of its dam. In hill sheep, where the environment constitutes the limiting factor to production, a study of the milking capacity of the ewe would seem to be of special interest, as it forms a large part of the lamb's environment at a most important period of growth.

Prenatal maternal effects on body condition score, female fertility, and milk yield of dairy cows [PDF]
, 2007 In this study, maternal effects were described as age of dam at first and second calving, first-lactation body condition score (BCS) of the dam during gestation, and milk yield of the dam.

Comparison of 2 types of milk flow meters for detecting bimodality in dairy cows
Journal of Dairy Science, 2023 : The primary objective of this observational study was to investigate whether incremental milk flow rates (in the 0–15 s, 15–30 s, 30–60 s, and 60–120 s intervals) from electronic on-farm milk flow meters can be used to detect bimodal milk flow curves ...

Phenotypic effects of calving ease on the subsequent fertility and milk production of dam and calf in UK Holstein-Friesian heifers [PDF]
, 2011 The effect of calving ease on the fertility and production performance of both dam and calf was studied in approximately 50,000 and 10,000 UK Holstein-Friesian heifers and heifer calves, respectively. The first objective of this study was to estimate the
