Precocious Maturation in Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch): Estimation of the Additive Genetic Variance

The additive genetic variance for precocious maturation was estimated from a population of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) mated in a nested, paternal half-sib design including 14 half-sib and 40 full-sib families (mean family size = 69). Heritability was estimated as 0.05±0.05(based on the sire...
