Estimates of (co)variance components for direct and maternal effects on birth weight of Karayaka lambs.

Tropical animal health and production - 1 Apr 2013

Ulutas Zafer, Sirin Emre, Aksoy Yüksel, Sahin Aziz, Kuran Mehmet

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this study was to estimate the genetic parameters for birth weight of Karayaka lambs by separating direct genetic, maternal genetic, and maternal permanent environmental effects. Records of 1013 Karayaka lambs born between 2005 and 2010 were analyzed. Six different animal models were examined, all including direct additive genetic variance and various combinations of genetic and environmental...
