In Chapter 3, it was stated that the genetic aspects of the production system set both the limits and potential for performance of the system. The breeding stock input into the system introduces potentials for animal performance but these are not usually exceeded (experimental lean growth promotants such as ractopamine and somatotropins do increase ...

SUMMARYA theoretical analysis of open nucleus breeding systems, in which there is some introduction of breeding females to the sire breeding nucleus, is presented. Numerical analysis of a discrete generation model shows that the rate of genetic gain may be increased by 10 to 15% by opening the nucleus when selection intensity in females is low.

Avian Communal Breeding Systems
Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, 1978Communal breeding in birds may be the most critical test case for the application of Hamilton's (54, 55) ideas about inclusive fitness, altruism, and kin selection (73a) among vertebrates. Avian communal breeding systems (A CBS) feature precisely that phenomenon that seems most likely to require kin selection as a part of its evolutionary explanation ...

Production systems and breeding strategies in goat breeding systems in Guadeloupe
2000L’objectif de cette étude était de décrire les orientations génétiques suivies par les éleveurs de caprins en Guadeloupe, en relation avec leur système de production. Une enquête a été réalisée sur un échantillon d’environ 3% des élevages, répartis sur l’ensemble de la Guadeloupe.
