Genetic Parameters for Physiological Characters in Merino Rams in Central and North West Queensland


Autoria(s): Rose, M.; Pepper, P.M.
Data(s)

2001

Resumo

Genetic and phenotypic parameters for respiration rate (RR) and rectal temperature (RT) are presented for weaner and hogget Merino rams, at Longreach and Julia Creek, Queensland. Heritability estimates for RT and RR at both sites and at both ages ranged from moderate to very high. Phenotypic and genetic correlations between these characters are also reported.
