[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1563599, member: 24565"] Tables at the end of the study are quicker discovery than the reading. [url]http://www.daltonsonthesycamore.com/documents/pdf/2014/SelectionForMarbling.pdf[/url] The old adage, "You change 'em without changing 'em" applies. The question: if selection for traits does affect type, will the AAA faithful accept dairy type cattle phenotype if that is where high marbling leads the breed? Such as typical look of modern average GAR bull and other breeds known for high marbling which includes dairy breeds? Not arguing, just thinking about it. It might be a blessing to get beyond the overly fat and the sway backed types. A new fad, so to speak. [/QUOTE]
