Random regression animal models for genetic evaluation of test-day milk yield and milking duration in Saudi dairy goats

Random regression animal model was applied for analyzing the relationships between daily milk yield (MK) and milking duration (DR) in dairy goats comparing with reviewed estimates in dairy cows. The current analyzed data involved 17345 sample
 test-day records from multiparous Saudi dairy goats. A cubic random regression was applied for representing additive genetic variances in all studied traits across all different days in milk (12 groups). Based on multi-lactation random regression
 data-set analysis, the role of inheritance was greatest during the later stages of lactation. Heritability estimates of daily milk yield (h2MK) ranged from 0.15 to 0.54. While estimates of heritability for milking duration (h2DR) were very low during
 the first 60 days of lactation, being not more than 0.04. During the 2nd half of lactation the estimates of h2DR ranged from 0.35 to 0.39. Results of genetic variations for lactation records during early production life showed that highest milk
 harvest with intermediate milking rate could be achieved. Estimates of expected breeding values for milk yield and milking duration increased in different rates with progressing days in milk groups. These results indicated that individual selection
 results would be favorably achieved during the late part of lactation. Additive genetic correlations between measures of all traits at different lactation months continuously decreased as the interval between test days increased. Additive genetic
 correlations between milking duration and milk yield were positive and considerably high. Correlations between expected breeding values of both traits ranged from 0.41 to 0.83 (mean = 0.69) across different lactation months. More details on estimates
 of breeding values, estimates of permanent environmental and additive genetic correlations for all traits were tabulated.
