Genetic correlation and heritabilities for purebred and crossbred performance in poultry egg production traits.

Journal of animal science - 1 Aug 1995

Wei M, van der Werf J H

Abstract excerpt

Genetic correlations between purebred and crossbred performance and purebred and crossbred heritabilities were estimated for egg production traits of laying chickens using a multivariate sire model accounting for additive relationships between sires. Two sire lines, denoted lines 1 and 2, were crossed to one dam line to produce crossbred progeny. Records for egg weight, egg specific gravity, and egg number were...
