Presents results of a study undertaken at Magogo, Kenya, to analyse genetic and phenotypic correlations between adjacent weights, between weights and rates of growth, and among growth rates themselves, hence data on 969 lambs collected over a 10-year period (1978-1987) on Dorper sheep were used i...

Data on 1199 lambs collected over a 10 year period (1978 to 1987) on Dorper and Dorper X Red Maasai sheep at Ol'Magogo were used in this study. Lamb traits studied were weights from birth to yearling and absolute growth rates between adjacent stages of growth. In general, crossbred lambs performe...

Data on 969 Dorper lambs collected over a 10-year period (1978 to 1987) at Ol'Magogo were used in this study. Lamb traits studied were weights from birth to yearling and absolute growth rates between adjacent stages of growth. All the fixed effects studied influenced growth in one way or another....
