A simple selection scheme to improve disease resistance and growth

2011-10-01

Abstract excerpt

A simple selection scheme is proposed that facilitates the selection for a growth trait (GROWTH) with heritability of 0.25 and one disease trait (SURVIVAL) with heritability of 0.1 or 0.4 using a two step selection procedure. First, the scheme applies phenotypic selection for SURVIVAL among all the 10,000 candidates per generation, assuming that Nsurvival=2500, 5000 or 7500 survived a disease challenge test. Survi...
