Resumo: This study aimed to compare random regression models fitted by Legendre orthogonal polynomials and determine which best fits changes in Nellore cattle growth parameters. Age polynomial functions of different orders were evaluated using a random-effect modeling associated with a genetic study of cattle growth curves. For this purpose, weight records (15,148) were performed in Polled Nellore bovines (3,115), aged between 1 and 660 days, reared in northern Brazil and born between 1995 and 2010. The fixed effects of analytical models comprised age-matched groups, heifer calving age (linear and quadratic), and fourth-order Legendre age polynomial (cubic), depicting the mean growth curve. Besides, different order functions were considered for random effects, so that (co) variance associated with genetic effects (direct and maternal) and permanent environmental effects (animal and maternal) could be modeled. Residual variance was fitted by six heterogeneous classes throughout the analyzed period. According to AIC and BIC criteria, the model 6333 allowed the fitting of changes in variance and covariance over time (genetic and environmental). Thus, this model can be used to describe age-related changes in Polled Nellore cattle reared in northern Brazil.

Funções polinomiais da idade de diferentes ordens foram avaliadas na modelagem dos efeitos aleatórios associados ao estudo genético da curva de crescimento de bovinos. Utilizaram-se 15148 registros de pesos de 3115 de bovinos Nelore Mocho, com idade entre 1 e 660 dias, criados na região norte do Brasil e nascidos entre os anos de 1995 e 2010. Os efeitos fixos incluídos nos modelos de análise foram: grupos de contemporâneos, a idade da vaca ao parto (efeito linear e quadrático) e os polinômios de Legendre da idade de quarta ordem (cúbica) para representar a curva média de crescimento. Na parte aleatória, consideraram-se funções de diferentes ordens para modelar as variâncias associadas aos efeitos genéticos aditivos direto e materno e aos efeitos de ambiente permanente do animal e da mãe. A variância residual foi ajustada por meio de seis classes heterogêneas, distribuídas ao longo do período analisado. De acordo com o valor do critério AIC e BIC o modelo com ordens 6333 (para efeitos genético direto e materno; e ambiente permanente direto e materno, respectivamente), permitiu ajustar as mudanças das variâncias e covariâncias com o tempo, podendo ser utilizado para descrever as mudanças nas variâncias com a idade dos bovinos Nelore Mocho criados na região Norte do Brasil.UEL2019-04-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa científicaapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/3278310.5433/1679-0359.2019v40n2p781Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 40 No. 2 (2019); 781-792Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 40 n. 2 (2019); 781-7921679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
