Estimation of heritability and genetic correlation of body weight gain and growth curve parameters in Korean native chicken

Objective This study estimated the genetic parameters for body weight gain and growth curve parameter traits in Korean native chicken (KNC). Methods A total of 585 F1 chickens were used along with 88 of their F0 birds. Body weights were measured every 2 weeks from hatching to 20 weeks of age to meas...
