“…Fontoura, Montanholi, Diel de Amorim, Foster, Chenier and Miller successful, as these fertility traits are heritable (Cammack et al, 2009). We found no difference between scrotum surface temperatures among right or left sides between RFI groups, but there was a larger temperature standard deviation at the base of the scrotum in less-feed-efficient bulls.…”

“…Most significant SNPs in terms of P-values are reported in bold. Note that SNP BTA-97369-no-rs was the only SNP not associated with both calibration and validation dataset for neither AGE26 nor AGECL (see Supplementary Material Tables S1, S2 environmental factors, as well as the use of different phenotypic measurements (Martin et al 1992;Cammack et al 2009). …”

“…Puberty in bulls was defined by scrotal circumference thresholds and was related to sperm concentration, motility and morphology (Lunstra et al 1978;Bagu et al 2004;Siddiqui et al 2008;Corbet et al 2009). Pubertal traits vary in heritability (h 2 ) from low to moderately high (Cammack et al 2009). …”

“…Hence, improving fertility is the prime aim of most beef producers globally. Longevity, calving interval (CI) and age at first calving (AFC) are among the most important indicators of fertility in cows (Cammack et al, 2009).…”
