Growth traits include birth weight (BW), one-month weight (1 MW), weaning weight (WW) and 6-month weight (6 MW). Also the milk production traits was monthly milk production on 2, 3, 4, 5th months (quantitative traits) and some milk composition included dry matter (%DM), fat (%F), and protein (%P) percentage on during of production (qualitative traits). There were no significant differences in sex, birth type and genetic group for BW. Also the effect of genetic groups on 1 MW, WW, and 6 MW was significant, while effects of sex and birth type on 1 MW, WW and 6 MW was not significant. Also MW (Mothe's weight) had no significant effect on BW, 1 MW, WW and 6 MW. The average of daily milk records was 0.48 kg for nativel and 1.1 kg for crossed goats. The maximum monthly milk records in two groups were in second month (native: 0.64 -4- 0.05, crossed: 1.44 ~: 0.12) and the minimum were in fifth month (native: 0.36 + 0.03, crossed: 0.77 -4- 0.05). %DM, %F and %P in 5th month were higher than other months in two groups. Effects of genetic groups on milk production and also on average of%F, %DM and %P were significant. This study showed that the crossbreeding has a significant effect on most milk production and growth traits in Iranian native goats.展开更多
