Genetic parameters for uniformity of harvest weight and body size traits in the GIFT strain of Nile tilapia.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 10 Jun 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Animal breeding programs have been very successful in improving the mean levels of traits through selection. However, in recent decades, reducing the variability of trait levels between individuals has become a highly desirable objective. Reaching this objective through genetic selection requires that there is genetic variation in the variability of trait levels, a phenomenon known as genetic...
