The relationship between withers height and hip height of 378 purebred Holstein-Friesian cows in Japan aged over 4, which have good dairy conformation and heigh milk production, is investigated by the Writer from biometric standpoint. And the results are as follows:
1. Biometric constants.
Withers height. (c.m.) Hip height. (c.m.)
M……135.93±0, 167 137.33±0.184
σ……4.82±0.118 5.29±0.130
V……3.55±0.087 3.85±0.095
Q……3.17±0.228 3.45±0.250
Mi……135.40±0.210 136.90±0.230
Mo……137.00±0.205 139.00±0.225
S……-0.22±0.042 -0.32±0.042
2. The frequency curve of withers height is Y=378/4.82√2π e-1/2(χ-135.93/4.82)2×2, and that of hip height Y=378/5.29√2π e-1/2(χ-137.33/5.20)×2.
3.The correlation coefficient between there two characters is +0.96±0.003.
4.The regression equations are (denoting withers height and hip height by X and Y, respectively).
X=0.88Y+16.45……(1)
Y=1.05X-5.40……(2)
