The accurate partitioning of genetic and environmental effects and the accuracy of estimation of genetic group variance is dependent on the level of linkage (at least 20%) among flocks, inclusion of genetic group effects in the evaluation model, size of genetic groups and the heritability of the trait. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | AAABG 2007: 17th Conference of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Armidale, Australia, 23rd - 26th September, 2007 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, v.17, p. 545-548 | Publisher: | Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics (AAABG) | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | ISSN: | 1328-3227 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 070201 Animal Breeding | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 830311 Sheep - Wool | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/35062558?selectedversion=NBD42373479 http://www.aaabg.org/livestocklibrary/2007/khusro545.pdf |
