Body conformation and weight relationships in Dohne Merino sheep: A comparison of measured and subjective traits
The morphometric and type traits of 269 Dohne Merino ram lambs were measured and/or assessed at four, eight, and 12 months of age. Body conformation scores were also awarded independently by three judges at each age. Estimated phenotypic correlations between conformation traits and body weights wer...
