Genetic parameters of growth traits at different growing stages of Paralichthys olivaceus (Temminck and Schlegel, 1846) were estimated using 30 families. The estimates of heritability for body weight at four developmental stages viz., 210, 450, 720 and 830 days of age, varied from 0.12 to 0.37. The heritability at 720 days of age was the lowest and that of 450 days was the highest. The maternal effect was 0.08 at 210 days, 0.03 at 450 days and almost zero (8.89 E-8 and 2.40 E-7) at 720 and 830 days. Correlation coefficients of the estimated breeding value (EBV) and phenotypic value (PV) of body weight at different developmental stages were 0.470-0.803, which were highly significant (p<0.01). Correlation of estimated breeding value (EBV) and phenotypic value (PV) was the highest at 210 days of age and the lowest at 720 days. Genetic correlation among the four stages showed large variation (0.339-0.811), which were highly significant except that of 210 and 830 days. The value and accuracy of estimating genetic parameters for growth traits at different stages was different. Therefore, the growth stage should be taken into account when designing a breeding program for growth traits in P. olivaceus.

Abstract. Weaning performance of 10 808 purebred offsprings (4991 male and 5817 female) of 80 sires in 13 farms were analised using animal model. Heritability, breeding value, (co)variance components for weaning weight (WW), preweaning daily gain (PDG), 205-day weight (CWW) were calculated. Farm, parity, year of birth, season of birth, sex were treated as fixed, and the maternal permanent environment was treated as random effects. In case of WW and PDG, the age of the calves at weaning was fitted as a covariant. Data were analyzed with MTDFREML (Boldman et al. 1993) program. The overall mean value and standard deviation of WW, PDG and CWW were 221±47 kg, 1,111±0.21 kg/day and 226±42 kg, respectively. The age of the calves at weaning was 202 days. The direct heritability (h2d) of WW and PDG were 0.57±0.08, 0.49±0.07 and CWW was 0.44±0.06, respectively. The maternal heritability (h2m) of these traits were 0.32±0.09, 0.33±0.10 and 0.33±0.09, respectively. The direct-maternal correlations (rdm) were strong and negative. The medium heritability estimates for direct effects suggest that progeny tests should be used in this population to increase genetic improvement.

In 1989, ten Suffolk breeders co-operated to establish a nucleus flock at Wye College. The group is known as the Wye Suffolk Improvement Group (WSIG). The members each contributed 5-10 pedigree ewes to use as the initial nucleus flock. Eighty-nine ewes were delivered to the College by the various participants. The objective of this study was to obtain estimates of the heritabilities of live animal traits, used to improve carcass traits, and phenotypic and genotypic correlation estimates between them in the Suffolk lambs in the south of England.
