Genetic and phenotypic responses on wool production and fleece components in two divergent lines selected for total fleece weight in angora rabbits

Les estimations des distances génétiques entre cinq populations montrent l‘existence de facteurs (effet fondateur, baGrières géographiques comme des rivières, montagnes,

The objective of this experiment was to examine the effect of melatonin treatment on (1) the quantity of wool produced, fibre length and fibre characters, (2) feed con- sumption

The aim of our study on Japanese quail was to investigate the phenotypic and genetic relationships between several social behaviors (social reinstatement, response to

This study aims to determine the consequences of growth rate on carcass composition, muscular characteristics and meat quality, by comparison of animals from divergent lines

In spite of the significant response to selection, neither the average weight of young nor the litter size at birth differ between the HOM and HET lines (Garreau et al., 2004

This study was aimed at determining the consequences of selection for a rapid or a low growth rate on carcass composition, muscle histological char- acteristics at slaughter,

epitrochlearis muscle of infected animals was 49% higher (P < 0.05) than in the control group, but protein synthesis was not significantly depressed (fig 1 There
