Polymorphism of egg white proteins egg weight and components weight in the
Genetics Selection Evolution, 1977 Centre national de Recherches zootechniques, LN.R.A., ., 78 Jouy-en-Josas Summary The genetic variations in egg-white proteins were detected in Fayoumi eggs. G locus proved to be the only polymorphic among four egg-white protein loci investigated. Two types were determined, Gand G,BB. The heterozygote proved to have heavier eggs and accordingly heavier

Dealing with multicollinearity in predicting egg components from egg weight and egg dimension
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2014 Measurements of 174 eggs from meat-type breeder flock (Ross) at 36 weeks of age were used to study the problem of multicollinearity (MC) instability in the estimation of egg components of yolk weight (YKWT), albumen weight (ALBWT) and eggshell weight ...

Poultry Science, 1983 The effects of the dwarfing gene (dw) on egg weight, chick weight, and chick weight: egg weight ratio were studied. Egg weights prior to setting and subsequent chick weights were determined on 1842 chicks from standard-sized broiler dams and 1694 chicks from closely related dwarf dams.

Estimation of Shell Weight and Shell Thickness from Egg Specific Gravity and Egg Weight
Poultry Science, 1982 Abstract Egg weight (EW), egg specific gravity (SG), shell thickness (ST), and shell weight (SW) were determined individually for 1853 eggs ranging in weight from 41 to 70 g. The eggs were laid by three groups of Single Comb White Leghorn (HN SW (g) = −5.972 + .06586 × SG + .09906 × EW (r2 = .890); SWUSA (mg/cm2) = 30.670 + .9565 × SG + .4571 × EW ...
