Estimated sire standard deviation (diagonal) and genetic correlations (above diagonal) considered in the Interbull routine evaluation for udder health traits of February, 2006; sire standard deviation estimates are determined on a de-standardized transmitting ability scale.

CAN=Canada, CHE=Switzerland, DEU=Germany, DNK=Denmark, DNR=Danish Red & White (Holstein evaluation), EST=Estonia, FIN=Finland, FRA=France, FRR=French Red Holstein (Holstein evaluation), GBR=United Kingdom, NLD=Netherlands, NOR=Norway, SWE=Sweden, USA=United States, ISR=Israel, ITA=Italy, AUS=Australia, CHR=Swiss Red Holstein, HUN=Hungary, BEL=Belgium, JPN=Japan, ESP=Spain, ZAF=Rep. South Africa, NZL=New Zealand.
 
Run-number: Run1= based on milk somatic cell information from all countries
with this information available
Run2= based on clinical mastitis from countries with this
information available, and on milk somatic cell information
for all other countries. Note that Run2 was not carried out
for BSW and GUE since none of the participating countries
provided clinical mastitis information.
