Animal model estimation of additive and dominance variances in egg production traits of poultry.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jan 1993

Wei M, van der Werf J H

Abstract excerpt

An animal model analysis was used to estimate simultaneously additive (sigma 2a) and dominance (sigma 2d) variances for egg production traits within three White Leghorn lines. The data consisted of information for three generations on egg number (EN) produced at 18 to 25 (EN1), 26 to 65 (EN2), and 18 to 65 wk of age (EN3); egg weight (EW) measured at 30 to 35 (EW1) and 40 to 45 wk (EW2); and egg specific gravity...
