Phenotypic Correlations Between Testes, Fattening and Carcass Characteristics of Ile de France IF x Akkaraman AK Bi Male Lambs

Abstract

This research was carried out with 74 of Ile de France IF x white Karaman WK B1 male lambs. In the research, phenotypic correlations between testes characteristics determining before and after slauhgtering with fattening and carcass characteristics were determined. Phenotypic correlations among these characteristics were high and signifı cant p

Keywords

• male lamb
• testes characteristics
• fattening and carcass characteristics
• phenotypic correlations
