Heritability estimates of methane emissions from sheep
The objective of this study was to determine the genetic parameters of methane (CH(4)) emissions and their genetic correlations with key production traits. The trial measured the CH(4) emissions, at 5-min intervals, from 1225 sheep placed in respiration chambers for 2 days, with repeat measurements...
