Selection index updating for maximizing rate of annual genetic gain in laying hens.

Poultry science - 1 Jan 1998

Hicks C, Muir W M, Stick D A

Abstract excerpt

Four selection strategies aimed at maximizing egg production in laying hens were compared with respect to expected annual genetic gain (GA). The selection strategies were: 1) (S1P) Traditional single-stage selection based on a single-house production system using partial records for both the individual and its ancestors, 2) Single-stage selection based on a single-house production system using full records for...
