Despite attracting the interest of animal breeders over decades, there is a scarcity of data and this study shows that the inheritance cannot be conclusively determined on this basis. Considering a range of possible inheritance scenarios will ensure that the gene discovery experiment is designed optimally. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | AAABG 2005: 16th Conference of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Noosa Lakes, Australia, 25th - 28th September, 2005 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, v.16, p. 188-191 | Place of Publication: | Collingwood, Australia | ISSN: | 1328-3227 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 060499 Genetics not elsewhere classified | 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/13321110?selectedversion=NBD28049210 http://www.aaabg.org/livestocklibrary/2005/188brash.pdf |
