Evaluation of Growth Functions on Japanese Quail Lines

The aim of present study was to fit the best predictive equation to describe the growth curve of different Japanese quail lines. Moreover the effect of short-term divergent selection on the growth curve parameters was investigated. The quail lines utilized in the current study were two divergently...
