Correlated responses in lamb mortality due to long term selection for cannon bone length and fleece medullation in sheep
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 September 2010
Abstract
Lamb mortality in a Scottish Blackface hill sheep flock subjected to long term selection for cannon bone length and fleece medullation score was investigated, using maximum likelihood analyses. The selection for cannon bone length and for medullation score had no significant effect on lamb mortality.
