[Studies on mastitis in ten groups of female offspring (author's transl)].
The incidence of mastitis in groups of female offspring of ten AI bulls was studied under field conditions. Marked variations in the incidence of symptoms of mastitis were observed. The results of this preliminary study were verified experimentally. Efforts should be made to direct breeding policies towards the selection of animals resistant to mastitis. The possibilities of selective breeding have been considerably improved by adopting modern methods of recording.
