Genetic trends for objectively measured and subjectively assessed traits in a Dorper sheep flock.

Tropical animal health and production - 1 Feb 2013

Zishiri Oliver Tendayi, Cloete Schalk Willem, Olivier Johannes Jacobus, Dzama Kennedy

Abstract excerpt

Genetic trends were constructed to monitor the genetic change for subjectively assessed and objectively measured traits using data emanating from complete records from the National Small Stock Improvement Scheme database and performance records accumulated by a single breeder over a period of 24 years. The objectively measured production traits considered were weaning weight, post-weaning weight (PWW), yearling...
