Correlated responses in body composition to divergent selection for exponential growth rate to 14 or 42 days of age in chickens.

Poultry science - 1 Jul 2002

Sizemore F G, Barbato G F

Abstract excerpt

Chicks divergently selected for 14-d (14H and 14L) or 42-d (42H and 42L) exponential growth rate (EGR) over five generations were used to determine correlated responses between growth at different ages and body composition. Regression coefficient estimates across five generations of selection were not significant for any line at either age for percentage total body water or protein. Genetic correlations between...
