A comparison of methods to calculate a total merit index using stochastic simulation
BACKGROUND: Modern dairy cattle breeding goals include several production and more and more functional traits. Estimated breeding values (EBV) that are combined in the total merit index usually come from single-trait models or from multivariate models for groups of traits. In most cases, a multivari...
