Contributions of genetic and environmental components to changes in phenotypic variation between generations.

Journal of animal breeding and genetics = Zeitschrift fur Tierzuchtung und Zuchtungsbiologie - 1 Aug 2010

Abstract excerpt

We evaluate the extent to which changes in phenotypic variation among generations of populations kept in the same environment are due to changes in genetic (V(A)) or in environmental (V(E)) variance. Data were available on body weight of adult poultry on a total of 89186 birds (mainly females) from six generations of each of seven lines of layers. There was substantial heterogeneity of variation between...
