Single-trait and antagonistic index selection for litter size and body weight in mice.
INDIVIDUAL SELECTION BASED ON FEMALE PERFORMANCE ONLY WAS CONDUCTED IN FOUR LINES OF MICE: L(+) for increased litter size, W(+) for increased 6-week body weight, L(-)W(+) for a selection index aimed at decreasing litter size and increasing 6-week body weight and L(+)W(-) for a selection index aimed at increasing litter size and decreasing 6-week body weight. A fifth line (K) served as an unsele...
متن کاملCorrelated responses in body composition based on selection for different indicator traits in mice.
Correlated responses in whole-body composition were determined in 12-wk-old male mice from replicate lines selected for 12 generations for high (HF) or low (LF) epididymal fat pad weight as a percentage of body weight (EPID) and high (HL) or low (LL) hind carcass weight as a percentage of body weight. The HF and LF lines diverged (P less than .01) in body fat percentage (FAT) and subcutaneous d...
متن کاملCorrelated responses to selection for large body size in oMt1a-oGH transgenic mice: organ traits
The objective of the present study was to compare correlated responses in liver, spleen, kidney, heart and testis absolute weights and as a percentage of 8-week body weight following selection for large 8-week body weight in twice-replicated nontransgenic and transgenecarrier lines of mice from two genetic backgrounds. The transgene was an ovine metallothionein 1a-ovine growth hormone (oMt1a-oG...
متن کاملEstimating Genetic Parameters of Body Weight Traits in Kourdi Sheep
For estimating genetic parameters for body weight traits in Kourdi sheep data were collected from 1996 to 2013 in Kourdi Breeding Station in Northern Khorasan province of Iran. Studied traits were birth weight (BW), weaning weight (WW), six-month weight (6MW), nine-month weight (9MW) and yearling weight (YW). The fixed effects in the model were lambing year, sex, type of birth and age of dam. (...
متن کاملCorrelated responses in reproductive and carcass traits to selection for 200-day weight in Duroc swine.
Correlated responses in reproductive and carcass traits from a line of Duroc pigs selected for increased 200-d weight along with a randomly selected control line were studied in 189 litters (116 select, 73 control) and 191 pigs (106 select, 85 control), respectively. Reproductive and maternal traits studied included litter sizes born, born alive, and alive at 21 d and litter weight at birth and...
