Estimation of genetic variability and selection response for clutch length in dwarf brown-egg layers carrying or not the naked neck gene
<p>Abstract</p> <p>In order to investigate the possibility of using the dwarf gene for egg production, two dwarf brown-egg laying lines were selected for 16 generations on average clutch length; one line (L1) was normally feathered and the other (L2) was homozygous for the naked ne...
