  1. 1AIS: number of inseminations per conception, NRR: 56-day non-return rate, IFL: days from first to last insemination, ICF: length in days of the interval from calving to first insemination, FTI: fertility index. C and H denote whether the trait has been measured in cows or heifers, respectively.
