The Mean

Egg production records of White Leghorn pullets hatched a t the Poultry Research Centre, Werribee, Vic., during 1947 to 1950 inclusive have been analysed both on a hen-housed (Production Index) and a survivor basis. Estimates of heritability were obtained by two methods: (1) by the analysis of components of variance between families of full sibs and half-sibs; (2) by estimating the intra-sire regression of the mean performance of offspring on dam's performance. Heritability, in the narrow sense, of Production Index during the pullet year is shown to be 23-30 per cent. with a reasonably low standard error, while heritability of survivors' production is slightly lower but not significantly so. Possible reasons are advanced for the low estimates of heritability of survivors' production.
