Heritabilities and genetic correlations were estimated for 5 575 laying Brown Tsaiya ducks on performance data from 5 generations of a selection experiment, by means of a multivariate, multimodel, restricted maximum likelihood method (MM-REML) applied to an animal model on the 12 traits: feather length at 20 weeks of age (FL20); body weight at 20 and 40 weeks of age (BW20; BW40); age at first egg (AGElEGG); number of eggs laid up to 40 and 52 weeks of age (NEGG40; NEGG52); eggshell strength at 30 and 40 weeks of age (ES30; ES40); egg weight at 30 and 40 weeks of age (EW30; EW40); egg yolk weight at 40 weeks of age (EYW40); and the proportion of egg weight to body weight at 40 weeks of age (EW40/BW40). Adult females were heavier than ...
