Estimation of heritability for fluctuating asymmetry in chickens by restricted maximum likelihood. Effects of age and sex.

Poultry science - 1 Nov 2005

Campo J L, Gil M G, Dávila S G, Muñoz I

Abstract excerpt

The purposes of the present study were to estimate the heritability of the fluctuating asymmetry in chickens, using the restricted maximum likelihood procedure, and to evaluate the effects of age and sex on the fluctuating asymmetry. Leg, wing, and feather lengths and ear-lobe and wattle areas were measured. In experiment 1, 1,073 birds were used from 2 generations with complete pedigree of the Quail Castellana...
