A quantitative genetic study on the proportion of males in tilapia
Lozano, Carlos (PhD Thesis;2011:63, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Early sexual maturation is one the main constraints in Tilapia farming since early breeding causes stunted growth and large size variability. To circumvent this problem all-male populations are used commercially, and ... -
Genetic analyses of feed efficiency traits in pigs
Martinsen, Kristine Hov (PhD Thesis;2016:55, Doctoral thesis, 2017-12-12)The main objective of this thesis was to establish more detailed measurements feed efficiency in Norwegian Landrace and Norwegian Duroc in order to genetically improve this trait without negative consequenses for other ... -
Genetic analyses of meat, fat and carcass quality traits measured by rapid methods
Gjerliaug-Enger, Eli (PhD Thesis;2011:13, Doctoral thesis, 2011)The overall aim of this thesis was to analyse meat and fat quality traits using quantitative genetic methods. This study has demonstrated that it is possible to establish simple laboratory practices and high quality rapid ... -
Genetic variation and management of the Norwegian horse breeds
Olsen, Hanne Fjerdingby (PhD Thesis;2011:05, Doctoral thesis, 2011)The Norwegian horse breeds suffer from strong competition in the market from imported, specialized breeds. Decreasing population sizes, especially for the Fjord, the Døle and the Nordland/Lyngen, and risk of rapid accumulation ... -
Quantitative genetics of traits related to disease resistance and effects of vaccination in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
Drangsholt, Tale Marie Karlsson (PhD Thesis;2011:39, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Disease resistance is of major importance to the fish farming industry as disease outbreaks have negative effects on the industry’s economy, its reputation and on fish welfare. Today, almost all fish in the Norwegian salmon ...
