Long-term responses, changes in genetic variances and inbreeding depression from 122 generations of selection on increased litter size in mice.

Abstract excerpt

Data on mice selected for litter size over 122 generations have been analysed in order to reveal the effect of long-term selection on responses and changes in variances over a long selection period. Originally, three lines were established from the same base population, namely an H line selected for large litter size, an L line selected for small litter size and a K line without selection. In generation 122, the...
