Genotype-by-environment interaction across THI classes impacts the selection for body weight at young ages in meat quails

This study aimed to investigate the impact of genotype-by-environment interaction (GEI) on body weight (BW) in meat quails. BW data from ten generations, recorded on 7 (BW7), 14 (BW14), 21 (BW21), 28 (BW28), 35 (BW35), and 42 (BW42) days after hatching were used for the analyses. A temperature and h...
