Biometrical genetics.
Biometrical genetics is the science concerned with the inheritance of quantitative traits. In this review we discuss how the analytical methods of biometrical genetics are based upon simple Mendelian principles. We demonstrate how the phenotypic covariance between related individuals provides information on the relative importance of genetic and environmental factors influencing that trait, and...
متن کاملBiometrical Genetics
previously appeared in journals. In examining the several hundred illustrations in the book, it is refreshing to find a succession of diagrams, line drawings, and halftones prepared according to various techniques. The subtle and harmonious contrasts to be observed offer a pleasant change from the conspicuously unvarying style that one sometimes finds in a large collection of illustrations prep...
متن کاملKappa-casein Genotypic Frequencies in Russian Breeds Black and Red Pied Cattle
Casein is a family of milk proteins that exists in several molecular forms and is the main protein present inthe bovine milk. The B variant of bovine k-casein is reported to be favorable for quality and quantity of cheese derived from milk and considered to be included in breeding strategies of dairy cattle. Genotypes of72 Russian Black Pied and 80 Red Pied cows were determined for ...
متن کاملApplication of Biometrical Genetics in Mulberry Silkworm Breeding: A Review
The silkworm, Bombyx mori is a lepidopteron insect by virtue of its economic importance for over a century has been used in many genetical experiments in several countries, especially China, India, Japan, Soviet Russia, Korea and many Southeast Asian and European countries. Many of the economic traits of this insect are known to be controlled by large number of polygenes. The silkworm varieties...
متن کاملOn Mathematical Characteristics of some Improved Estimators of the Mean and Variance Components in Elliptically Contoured Models
In this paper we treat a general form of location model. It is typically assumed that the error term is distributed according to the law belonging to the class of elliptically contoured distribution. Some sorts of shrinkage estimators of location and scale parameters are proposed and their exact bias and MSE expressions are derived. The performance of the estimators under study are compl...
