Genetic and non-genetic aspects of the productive efficiency of the rabbit Doe.
Abstract: This study was carried out at San El-Hager Agricultural Company, San El-Hager, Sharkya Governorate. Data, collected on 355 does and 1430 purebred litters produced by B, CAL and NZW rabbits during two successive years of production (1992&1993), were used to investigate some genetic (doe effect, doe variance component, Repeatability, Doe breeding value); non-genetic (Parity, Year-season combination) and Common litter effect effects on litter traits (litter size, litter weight and mean bunny weight per litter at birth, 21 days and at weaning at 30 days and gain in litter weight up to 21 days and up to weaning). Data were analyzed by the Mixed Model Least-Squares and Maximum Likelihood Mean Weighted program of Harvey (1990) and by using an Animal Model program (Single trait) of Misztal (1988).
