Estimation of the Heterosis Effect and Comparison of Growth Curves for Body Weight Trait in Crosses between Two Selected Lines in Japanese Quail
Abstract
In the current study, two line with short-term divergent selection for high weight (HW) and low weight (LW) at 4 wk of age after 7 generation were analyzed in Coturnix Japonica Quail. HW line was significantly higher than LW line at 28d of age (p
