Comparative multivariate analysis of biometric traits of West African Dwarf and Red Sokoto goats.

Tropical animal health and production - 1 Mar 2011

Yakubu Abdulmojeed, Salako Adebowale E, Imumorin Ikhide G

Abstract excerpt

The population structure of 302 randomly selected West African Dwarf (WAD) and Red Sokoto (RS) goats was examined using multivariate morphometric analyses. This was to make the case for conservation, rational management and genetic improvement of these two most important Nigerian goat breeds. Fifteen morphometric measurements were made on each individual animal. RS goats were superior (P<0.05) to the WAD for the...
