| dc.description.abstract | An experiment was carried out to study the genetic and non- genetic factors influencing feed efficiency (feed g/gain g) in broiler rabbits viz. New Zealand White (NZW), Soviet Chinchilla (SC) and SC x NZW crossbreds (CB). The non-genetic factors induded were sex, litter size at birth, season and year of birth. The data pertaining to fortnightly body weight from four to 12 weeks of age, feed efficiency (FE) and daily gain (OG) were subjected to least squares analysis. Breed had significant effect on body weights at all ages. NZW had the least body weights through out the experiment and SC and CB did not differ significantly at market age of 12 weeks. Overall daily gain was not affected by breed while FE was significantly (P. | en_US |
