The characteristics of this response pattern vary between sheep and are correlated with staple strength. The unifying hypothesis that differences between sheep in responsiveness of fibre diameter throughout the year may be able to be utilised to improve wool staple strength was accepted. | Publication Type: | Thesis Doctoral | Rights Statement: | Copyright 2000 - Daniel John Brown | HERDC Category Description: | T2 Thesis - Doctorate by Research | Publisher/associated links: | http://sheepjournal.net/index.php/WTSB/article/view/1477 http://sheepjournal.net/index.php/WTSB/article/view/1744 http://sheepjournal.net/index.php/WTSB/article/view/1485 http://agbu.une.edu.au/publications/gxe_armwa.pdf |
