Estimation of Heritability of Mastitis Disease Using ANOVA Method

Mastitis disease being a threshold character in dairy cattle breeding, needs an in-depth study especially with regard to its inheritance. The Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) estimator method and a modified method given by Fleiss were applied to find the heritability of mastitis disease. The concept of intraclass correlation coefficients was used in calculating the heritability. The results obtained showed similarity with the results cited in literatures
