Genetic parameters for bodyweight, wool, and disease resistance and reproduction traits in Merino sheep. 4. Genetic relationships between and within wool traits

Animal Production Science, 2009
The aim of this paper was to describe the genetic relationship among expressions at different ages of seven wool traits: greasy and clean fleece weights, fibre diameter, coefficient of variation of fibre diameter, staple length and strength, and mean fibre curvature.

Estimation of genetic, heritability, and phenotypic trends for weight and wool traits in Rambouillet sheep

Small Ruminant Research, 2019
Genetic and phenotypic trends give an indication of the progress of a breed over the years and help in understanding the effectiveness of selection. Therefore, a study was planned to estimate genetic, heritability and phenotypic trends for Rambouillet ...

The study of variability in some wool traits in a coarse wool breed of sheep

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1973
SummaryWool samples from 47 Barki yearlings were taken from five positions during two years to study the variability in the fleece, the cause of variability and associations between different fleece traits. Statistical analysis has indicated the following significant points.An antero-posterior gradient occurred in the different traits under study. When

Associativity of selected traits in Aginskaya semicoarse wool sheep

Russian Agricultural Sciences, 2016
Research findings in the phenotypic correlations of the live weight to the body measurements and the body conformation indices in the replacement young stock of the semicoarse wool sheep of the Aginskaya breed have been reported. It is ascertained that males surpass the females in the live weight and the body measurements.

An ovine quantitative trait locus affecting fibre opacity in wool

Small Ruminant Research, 2015
Abstract This experiment was originally structured as a genome-wide screen for quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting resistance or susceptibility to facial eczema disease (FE), a liver mycotoxicosis. Two Finnish Landrace (F) rams were crossed to three Texel (T) ewes to produce three cross-breed (designated F × T) rams.
