Genetic variation in composite and parental populations: expectations for levels of dominance and gene frequency.

Journal of animal science - 1 Oct 1991

Mohd-Yusuff M K, Dickerson G E

Abstract excerpt

Usefulness of multibreed composites depends on: 1) adaptation of the average breed effects combined, 2) amount of initial heterosis retained, and 3) the rate of further improvement from selection. Potential improvement could be increased, relative to parental stocks, by retained heterosis in repr...
