Summary: | Using the Bridges's method and its modifications on the basis of growth rate indices modelling a poultry's living weight trait is performed. Effectiveness of the selection by optimum combinations of model constants for increasing growth energy in chickens is determined. In particular, kinetic rate of growth is shown to have a significant effect on living weight at the end of the growth period. This trait is to be taken into consideration in breeding programmes for poultry |
