Genetic Parameters in Merino Sheep GENETIC RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN CARCASS QUALITY AND WOOL PRODUCTION TRAITS IN AUSTRALIAN MERINO RAMS
The heritability of carcass quality traits and the genetic correlations between wool production and these carcass quality traits were estimated on 1216 Merino rams. The results showed that carcass quality traits are moderately heritable but pH appears to be lowly heritable. Yellowness and redness of L. dorsi had very low heritability estimate. Moderate negative genetic relationships were found ...
متن کاملThe Chemical & Physical Structure of Merino Wool
Figure 2: Formation of a polypeptide by reaction of amino acids. (R , R and R may be the same or different 1 2 3 side groups). These contaminants are removed during processing. Clean wool, together with other animal fibres, belongs to a group of proteins known as keratins. Unlike cotton and the majority of synthetic fibres, wool does not have a homogeneous structure. Wool fibres have highly com...

متن کاملValuing Urban Bus Attributes
The article presents the marginal willingness-to-pay (WTP) estimates for various qualitative and quantitative attributes of travel with reference to the bus transportation system in Kolkata City, India. A stated choice experiment is designed to capture the responses for estimating marginal WTP values for various attributes. WTP values are estimated separately for commuting and noncommuting trip...
متن کاملAssociation of methionine synthase gene polymorphisms with wool production and quality traits in Chinese Merino population.
Methionine synthase (MTR) plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis of intracellular methionine, folate, and homocysteine, and its activity correlates with DNA methylation in many mammalian tissues. Our previous genomewide association study identified that 1 SNP located in the gene was associated with several wool production and quality traits in Chinese Merino. To confirm the potential i...
