Understanding Genetics and the Sire Summaries
www.holsteinfoundation.orgQuantitative traits are controlled by many genes. Each gene generally has a relatively small influence on the expression of a trait, but collectively, these genes can have large effects. Examples of quantitative traits include milk production, milk component percentages, and physical traits such as stature and rump angle.
