Computer simulations and suitability of open nucleus breeding schemes for dairy cattle under Philippine conditions
Computer simulations using deterministic models were performed to evaluate the genetic properties of the open nucleus breeding system for smallholder dairy cattle. Higher asymptotic (steady-state) selection response but longer genetic (improvement) lag and improved mean breeding values in the nucleu...
