5. Hornlöshet hos kött- och mjölkkor: nedärvning och samband med andra egenskaper
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and GeneticsSammanfattning : I denna litteraturstudie sammanfattas information angående hornlöshet hos kött- och mjölkkor. Syftet omfattar att undersöka hur fenotypen nedärvs, om det finns skillnader mellan raser samt att redovisa samband med andra egenskaper. Kor med horn kan orsaka skador på såväl djur som människor och korna blir därför svårare att hantera. LÄS MER
