Genetic variation in total plasma and high density lipoprotein cholesterol and body weight in medium white turkeys.

Poultry science - 1 May 1992

Smith E J, Savage T F

Abstract excerpt

Plasma total cholesterol (PC) and its high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) fraction were determined in 700 16-wk-old Medium White turkeys in Generation 15 of selection for low and high semen ejaculate volumes (SEV). The birds examined were from pedigree matings involving 10 sires mated to 100 dams in each line. Mean PC and HDLC were not different between lines and between sexes within lines. Genetic...
