Genetic analysis of live weight of local kids to promote genetic evaluations in the arid areas of Tunisia.

Tropical animal health and production - 1 May 2020

Atoui Ahlem, Carabaño María Jesús, Díaz Clara, Najari Sghaier

Abstract excerpt

Goat meat production, a widely extended activity in the more arid areas of Tunisia, relies on local breeds. These breeds are well adapted to produce under harsh conditions but have a very small size and low productivity. The aim of this study was to establish the basis for future genetic evaluations to improve growth potential of this local stock. A total of 13,095 body weights and pedigree of 945 kids in the...
