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.

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.

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.

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

COMPARISON OF DIFFERENT PROCEDURES FOR LACTATION LENGTH ADJUSTMENT OF MILK YIELD IN SAHIWAL CATTLE [PDF]
Pakistan Veterinary Journal, 2004 The purpose of the present study was to compare three procedures for lactation length adjustment of milk yield. For this purpose, weekly milk yield records (n = 2039) of Sahiwal cows were used. Multiplicative adjustments using simple linear regression of
