Selection efficiency for growth performance of Menz sheep in a community-based breeding program
The study was undertaken to evaluate the efficiency of selection on growth performance of Menz sheep under a community-based breeding program (CBBP) from the period of 2009 – 2017. A total of 3996 lamb records (ram lambs 2025/ ewe lambs 1971) were used to evaluate the phenotypic and genetic factors...
