Above the 0 line (X axis) selects for more positive numbers and below
the line selects for more negative numbers. For some traits (e.g. growth), DC days -9.5 -8.0 -7.2 -6.7 -6.2 -5.8 -5.5 -5.2 -4.9 -4.6 -4.3 -4.0 -3.7 -3.4 -3.1 -2.8 -2.3 -1.9 -1.2 -0.1 +2.1
a positive response is desirable and for others (e.g. days to calving), a Fert
