Investigating anogenital distance and antral follicle count as novel markers of fertility within a herd of cows with positive or negative genetic merit for fertility traits

Using early-in-life markers of reproductive characteristics may enhance the speed and success of genetic improvement in fertility. We investigated 2 phenotypes that can be measured early in life and are moderately heritable to determine their association with traditional measures of reproductive suc...
