Offspring-parent genotypic regression : how linear is it?

By: Material type: ArticleArticleLanguage: English Publication details: United Kingdom : International Biometric Society, 1986.ISSN:

Subject(s): In: Biometrics v. 42, p. 67-73,1986Summary: Linearity of offspring-parent regression is investigated for quantitative characters with dominance. This is done by fitting a second-order regression equation in orthogonal bivariate polynomials to the offspring's genotypic value and evaluating the significance of nonlinear terms in the equation. Three genetic models are considered.
