In dairy cattle, selecting for lower methane-emitting animals is one of the new challenges of this decade. However, genetic selection requires a large number of animals with records to get accurate estimated breeding values (EBV). Given that CH4 records are scarce, the use of information on routinely recorded and highly correlated traits with CH4 has been suggested to increase the accuracy of genomic EBV (GEBV) through multitrait (genomic) prediction. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate accuracies of predictio
