Repeatability and phenotypic correlations for body weight and reproduction in commercial ostrich breeding pairs.

British poultry science - 1 Dec 1996

van Schalkwyk S J, Cloete S W, de Kock J A

Abstract excerpt

1. Reproduction is an important aspect of ostrich farming, where income is mainly derived from hides and meat. No estimates of repeatability or phenotypic correlations for reproduction and body weight are currently available for commercial ostriches. 2. Means, standard deviations, repeatability coefficients and phenotypic correlations for and among reproductive traits and body weight were computed for the average...
