Heritability and genetic correlation estimates for performance and carcass and body composition traits in a male broiler line.
The current research was conducted to estimate the heritability coefficients and the genetic correlations for performance and carcass and body composition traits in a single sire broiler line. The performance traits analyzed were BW at 38 d, ultrasound records of pectoral muscle depth, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, and BW at 42 d. The carcass traits analyzed were eviscerated BW, breast we...

متن کاملTransethnic Genetic-Correlation Estimates from Summary Statistics.
The increasing number of genetic association studies conducted in multiple populations provides an unprecedented opportunity to study how the genetic architecture of complex phenotypes varies between populations, a problem important for both medical and population genetics. Here, we have developed a method for estimating the transethnic genetic correlation: the correlation of causal-variant eff...
متن کاملFacial averageness and genetic quality: Testing heritability, genetic correlation with attractiveness, and the paternal age effect.
Popular theory suggests that facial averageness is preferred in a partner for genetic benefits to offspring. However, whether facial averageness is associated with genetic quality is yet to be established. Here, we computed an objective measure of facial averageness for a large sample (N = 1,823) of identical and nonidentical twins and their siblings to test two predictions from the theory that...
متن کاملEstimates of Heritability and Correlation for Milk and Growth Traits in Zaraibi Goat
Records from the El-Serw research station belonging to Animal Production Research Institute were used to estimate the genetic parameters for the economically most important milk and growth traits in the Zaraibi goat breed. There were 99 and 110 half-sib families over the periods 1995-2003 and 1990-2003 for milk and growth traits, respectively. Milk traits were, milk yield during the first 90 da...
