Abstract excerpt
The objective of the present experiment was to study genetic variation within and among well-defined Japanese quail lines by DNA fingerprinting. The Japanese quail lines included a randombred control line (R1) and lines developed from R1 by divergent selection over 30 generations for 4-wk BW (HW, LW) and total plasma phosphorus (TPP) (HP, LP), a measure of yolk precursor in the blood. In addition, two sublines...
