The use of monthly egg production records for genetic evaluation of laying hens
This research addresses the possibilities of using monthly production records for genetic evaluation of laying hens with four different models and different data sets. The data were collected from a pure line of Lohmann Tierzucht GmbH at Cuxhaven in Germany for two generations from 1998 to 1999 with...
