Eleven generations of selection for the duration of fertility in the intergeneric crossbreeding of ducks
<p>Abstract</p> <p>A 12-generation selection experiment involving a selected line (S) and a control line (C) has been conducted since 1992 with the aim of increasing the number of fertile eggs laid by the Brown Tsaiya duck after a single artificial insemination (AI) with pooled Mus...
