Predicting the purebred-crossbred genetic correlation from the genetic variance components in the parental lines [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2021 Background The genetic correlation between purebred and crossbred performance ( $${r}_{pc}$$ r pc ) is an important parameter in pig and poultry breeding, because response to selection in crossbred performance depends on the value of $${r}_{pc}$$ r pc ...

THI Modulation of Genetic and Non-genetic Variance Components for Carcass Traits in Hanwoo Cattle [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 The phenotype of carcass traits in beef cattle are affected by random genetic and non-genetic effects, which both can be modulated by an environmental variable such as Temperature-Humidity Index (THI), a key environmental factor in cattle production.

Genetic variance components of the growth curve for Isfahan indigenous chicken [PDF]
Veterinary Medicine and ScienceBackground Being able to model a growth curve using three or four non‐linear functional parameters could help explain the growth phenomenon in a precise way and would allow the comparison of an animal's development rate, optimize management and feeding ...

The genetic basis of inheritance of plant height in maize [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2015 The aim of this study, on the grounds of direct and reciprocal diallel crossing of five inbred lines of maize, was to determine: variability, heterosis, combining ability and genetic basis of plant height inheritance. The experiment was based on

NATURE OF GENE ACTION AND HETEROTIC PERFORMANCE FOR YIELD AND YIELD COMPONENTS IN SUMMER SQUASH (Cucurbita pepo l.) [PDF]
Journal of Plant Production, 2015 Six inbred lines of summer squash representing wide range of variability in most of the studied traits were utilized in a half diallel cross. The studied traits were Plant height, days to female flowers, number of fruits/plant, average fruit length ...
