A Biometrical and Genetic Study of Tribolium Egg Production Curves as A Model for Lactation Curves
Abstract
dc:descriptionA considerable amount of research has been conducted to find a mathematical equation that describes the nonlinear lactation curve of dairy cattle. The most common method to obtain parameter estimates for these mathematical equations has been to transform the nonlinear function to its linear counterpart and then find parameter estimates for the transformed equation. These estimates are then transformed back to estimates for the original nonlinear equation.
