Between and within-Breed Variations in feed intake and fat deposition, and Genetic Associations of these with some production traits in Menz and Horro Sheep
A total of four hundred and fifty seven Menz (n=305) and Horro (n=152) male lambs born over eight consecutive dry- and wet-seasons from October 1992 to July 1996, at ILRI's Debre Berhan Research station were used to: i) determine between-breed differences and within-breed variations in feed intake a...
