Resistance to infectious diseases is a heritable trait in rabbits.

Journal of animal science - 1 Dec 2015

Gunia M, David I, Hurtaud J, Maupin M, Gilbert H, Garreau H

Abstract excerpt

Selection for disease resistance is a powerful way to improve the health status of herds and to reduce the use of antibiotics. The objectives of this study were to estimate 1) the genetic parameters for simple visually assessed disease syndromes and for a composite trait of resistance to infectious disease including all syndromes and 2) their genetic correlations with production traits in a rabbit population....
