Metadata Age at breeding-female progeny

Description

Here you will find the necessary information to use the "Data Age at breeding-female progeny" file with the three folders corresponding to "Growth, Hormones and metabolites and Reproductive".

Steps to reproduce

Heifers of 15 and 27 months of age (never previously mated) and multiparous Angus cows were inseminated and conceived to a single Angus sire´s in this study. The animals used in the present work are the entire female progeny since the objective was to evaluate the age of the mother in the reproductive growth and development of the females. All female progenies were weighted from birth to slaughter (435d). Ultrasounds and IGF 1 concentration were performed from rearing to slaughter, where the development and weight of the reproductive offspring were evaluated.
