Figure 1
Avoidance distance score (ADS) behaviour frequencies of the three genotypes.
Score definitions: 1: The cow avoided the observer at a distance of more than 2 meters., 2: The cow avoided the approaching at a distance of between 1 and 2 meters., 3: The cow accepted the observer at a distance of 1 meter but avoided him when arms were outstretched., 4: The cow accepted the observer when arms were outstretched, but avoided him when touched., 5: The cow accepted to be touched by the observer.
Figure 2
Entrance score (ENS) response-behaviour frequencies according to genotypes.
Score definitions: 1: acceptance to enter, 2: defying entrance, 3: the cow needed to be pushed by humans.
Figure 3
Feeding score of the three genotypes during milking.
Score definitions: 1: attempting to feed immediately after the feed has been poured in a feed trough 2: attempted to feed but did not finish the feed in the trough, 3: fed and finished the feed
Figure 4
Stepping behaviour of the three genotypes.
Score definitions: 1: no occurrence of stepping, 2: stepping occurred just once, 3: stepping occurred at least twice or more.
Figure 5
Kicking behaviour of three primiparous genotypes.
Score definitions: Score definitions: 1: no occurrence of kicking, 2: kicking occurred just once, 3: kicking occurred at least twice or more.
Figure 6
Exit speed of the three primiparous genotypes. Score definitions: 1: walking, 2: trotting, 3: running.
