A quantitative genetic analysis of body condition, body shape, skin colour and spottiness of
large, farmed rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss showed that the traits can be modified …

Finnish blue fox farmers breed for increased litter size and pelt size, and improved fur
quality. Some farmers select pelt size and fur quality indirectly using live animal evaluations …

This study presents estimates of heritability for fur coat and reproductive traits in arctic and
silver foxes kept in farms in Poland. The estimates of variance components were calculated …

Pelt character traits (size, quality, colour clarity, darkness) are important economic traits in
blue fox breeding. Better feed efficiency (FE) is another economically important and new …

5 540 records of the arctic fox fur coat and reproductive traits collected in 1983–1999 were
studied. The analyzed traits were: body size (BS), colour type (CT), colour purity (CP), coat …

Coat and conformation traits (body size, colour type, colour purity, coat density, hair length,
general appearance, total score) of 4 306 arctic foxes bred on the niaty Fox Farm (Poland) in …

Data on 4 435 animals, collected on two fox farms in 1985–1999, were used in the
estimation of genetic parameters and genetic trends for four traits evaluated according to …

Genetic parameters (heritability, genetic and phenotypic correlations) of chosen coat colour
traits of golden fox were estimated. 1013 animals, born on the Šniaty fox farm (Poland) in …

ABSTRACT A data set of 3637 records collected on two Polish fox farms in 1985-1999 was
used to estimate variance components and genetic trends in a population of the silver fox. In …

Sinikettujen jalostuksessa pääpaino on viime aikoina ollut koon kasvattamisessa. Koska
eläimen koko on hyvin periytyvä ominaisuus, koon fenotyyppinen valinta on tehokas tapa …
