Title: Litter size component traits in two Algerian rabbit lines
Author: Belabbas, Rafik García, Maria de la Luz AinBaziz, Hacina Berbar, Ali Argente, Maria José
Issued date:
Abstract:
[EN] The aim of this study was to estimate the limiting litter size components in rabbit females from a Synthetic line (n=32) and a Local population (n=34). Ovulation rate, number of implanted and live embryos were counted ...[+]
