Abstract: There has been considerable recent interest in factor-analytic models for the analysis of genotype by environment type problems. It is shown that, compared to 'standard' multivariate analyses, such models can substantially reduce computational requirements for international genetic evaluation of beef cattle, fitting an animal model and treating performance in different countries as separate traits.
