Influence of type traits on stayability in the Ital- ian Mediterranean buffalo by Damiano Altieri, Stefano Biffani, Mayra Gómez, Yuri Gombia, Dario Rossi, Luca Gubitosi, Nadia Piscopo, Francesca Carnovale, Rossella Di Palo

“…There are many ways to assess longevity, both quantitatively, such as age at culling and parity at culling, and qualitatively, such as in the case of stayability, where it is evaluated as a binary variable where 1 and 0 indicate the ability to stay or be culled at a given time, respectively. In a recent study, we evaluated the genetic aspects of stayability in IMB, and the results suggest the possibility of using it in the selection process. …”
