Genetic Variance Estimation over Time in Broiler Breeding Programmes for Growth and Reproductive Traits
Monitoring the genetic variance of traits is a key priority to ensure the sustainability of breeding programmes in populations under directional selection, since directional selection can decrease genetic variation over time. Studies monitoring changes in genetic variation have typically used long-t...
