Knowledge of major gene effects for quantitative traits (e.g. milk performance traits) and theconsequent selection of animals with desirable genotypes can accelerate breeding progressand can therefore equal large gain in profits. It is generally accepted that in most cases, thetotal breeding value for quantitative traits of any animal can be divided in one or some majorgene effects and a pure random polygenic component, in which the latter results from afinite number of remaining loci (FERNANDO et al. 1994). Thus, the aim of this study was toinvestigate, how the estimation of heritability is influenced by the application of two differentmodels, one of them containing a major single gene effect. The myostatin gene (<i>MSTN</i>) waschosen because the knowledge of this gene effect is used for selection decisions in the DualPurpose Belgian Blue Breed (DP-BBB) in the Walloon Region of Belgium
