h2 = 1 and that gene frequencies are known.
Assume you have 3 beef cows whose birth weights were as follows:A = 65 lbs, B = 75 lbs and C = 85 lbs. Your employer wants to breedonly those cows which are more than 1 Standard Deviation above thepopulation mean. If the population mean for birth weights,mBW = 70 lbs, and the variance for birth weights,s2BW = 64 lbs2, how many of thecows should you select for breeding? Which ones specifically?
hint for this question-
- mBW + 1 S.D. =
