Heritablility values range from 0-1 so the maximum value of heritability would be 1.

What genetic characteristics come from the bull?

Half the genes a calf gets is from his sire, and the other half from his dam. Some genes will be more dominant than others, depending on which of his parents has the dominant gene, and some, like carcass characteristics from his sire, are more heritable than others. Often a bull that has better genetics than the rest of the cowherd will produce calves that have slightly better genetics than their dams. Some of the more heritable traits that a bull's offspring can receive from him, if he's better quality than the cowherd, are: Lean/bone ratio (60% heritability) Lean percentage (55% heritability) Mature cow weight (50% heritability) Carcass grade (45% heritability) Thickness of outside carcass fat (45% heritability) Dressing percentage (40% heritability) Marbling (40% heritability) Ribeye area (40% heritability) Yearling weight (feedlot)(40% heritability) Yearling weight (pasture (35% heritability) Efficiency of gain (35% heritability) Birth weight (30% heritability) Post-weaning gain (30% heritability) Tenderness (meat quality) (30% heritability) Carcass weight (25% heritability) Weaning weight (25% heritability) Calf survival (10% heritability) Calving interval (10% heritability) Calving ease (10% heritability) The definition of heritability is: "The proportion of the differences among cattle, measured or observed, that is transmitted to the offspring. Heritability varies from 0 to 1. The higher the heritability of a trait, the more accurately does the individual performance predict breeding value and the more rapid should be the response due to selection for that trait."

Is Heritability of all traits the same?

No, heritability varies for different traits. While some traits have a high heritability (such as height or intelligence), others have a lower heritability (such as personal preferences or habits). The heritability of a trait depends on how much of the variation in that trait can be attributed to genetic differences among individuals in a specific population.


Given a uniform environment the extent to which trait variation can be attributed to differing genes is called?

Heritability


Can heritability be negative value?

Yes, but negative variance indicates environmental variance (i.e., within-family or within-strain) is unusually high, possibly due to poor experimental design. Narrow sense heritability (h2, not H2) = (phenotypic variance - environmental variance) / phenotypic variance.


The current estimate of heritability of intelligence is?

90


What are the strengths and weaknesses of some of the methods used to determine heritability in humans?

Heritability is the amount of variance in observed demeanors among people that can be explicated by genetics.


What is the maximum value of 6x plus 10y in the feasible region?

maximum value of 6y+10y


What would contribute to an overestimation of heritability?

One of manyÊthings that could contribute to incorrect or overestimation of heritability would be the infuence of environment factors including geographical location.


Difference between broad sense heritability and narrow sense heritability?

Broad-sense heritability includes all sources of genetic variance, both additive and non-additive, in a population, while narrow-sense heritability only considers additive genetic variance. Narrow-sense heritability is a more precise measure of the proportion of phenotypic variance that can be attributed to additive genetic effects.


How would you describe the spread for a dot plot?

The spread is the minimum value (not count) to the maximum value. The range is the maximum value minus the minimum value. Spread does not consider the frequency of the values, only the minimum and maximum.


What is maximum value and minimum value?

pi value= 1
