Abstract
The relationship between type traits in Holstein cows over generations was analysed. The analysed data set included a total of 12 157 dam-daughter pairs with linear scores of 14 type traits including a final score and general characteristics of type. Significant relationships existed between linear type traits in dams and their daughters. Pearson correlation coefficients ranged from r = 0.20 to r = 0.63 except the rump angle. A negative correlation (r = –0.02) was found for this trait. A similar tendency resulted from the analysis of the relationship between values of general characteristics and the final type score.
