BAYESIAN ESTIMATES OF GENETIC PARAMETERS OF NON-RETURN RATE AND SUCCESS IN FIRST INSEMINATION IN JAPANESE BLACK CATTLE

Bayesian estimates of genetic parameters of non-return rate and success in first insemination in Japanese Black cattle

Objective The objective of present study was to estimate heritability of non-return rate (NRR) and success of first insemination (SFI) by using the Bayesian approach with Gibbs sampling.Methods Heifer Traits were denoted as NRR-h and SFI-h, and cow traits as NRR-c and SFI-c.The variance covariance components were estimated using threshold model und
