[QUOTE="novatech, post: 482597, member: 5494"] With all the talk on the other threads about cross breeding and line breeding I thought this would be the appropriate place for my question. I know about hybrid vigor, longevity, and fertility advantages when breeding for F1,s. When line breeding why could not one breed these same characteristics into his cattle? Are they less heritable than the other traits. Is there a list of how heritable each of the traits are? OK leave hybrid vigor out. But average daily gain or NFI could be used. [/QUOTE]
