Phenotypic characterization of rambouillet sheep expressing the callipyge gene: I. Inheritance of the condition and production characteristics.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jan 1997

Jackson S P, Green R D, Miller M F

Abstract excerpt

The objectives of this study were to determine the model of inheritance of the callipyge gene and to evaluate the growth, ADFI, feed efficiency, reproductive performance, and wool growth of sheep that are heterozygous for the callipyge gene. Ewes (n = 236) with a normal muscle phenotype and genotype were mated to three heterozygous rams that expressed the callipyge gene. Lambs (n = 311) were subjectively...
