“…Establishment of the F2 cross has been reported by Bennewitz et al (2014). Briefly, selection started in 1995 at the Danish Institute of Animal Sciences, Foulum, Denmark using a White Leghorn line of the Scandinavian selection and crossbreeding experiment (Liljedahl et al, 1979). The selection criterion was the number of bpb of SFP delivered.…”

“…The resulting population was randomly mated for 3 generations before the formation of the different selected lines (Liljedahl et al, 1979 (Rose, 1984 (Clayton and Robertson, 1966;Flock, 1977;Liljedahl et al, 1984 in laying hens; Rose and Charlesworth, 1981a;Burla and Taylor, 1982;Engstr6m et al, 1989 in Drosophila medanogaster). This pattern is probably due to the impairment of the individual's ability to cope with environmental stress due to increasing difficulties in maintaining their physiological homeostasis (Lerner, 1954).…”

“…The procedure in selection was similar for the following generations, and is summarised in Table 1. For generation 0 the family-index (Liljedahl et al, 1979) was used to estimate the breeding values while an animal model was used in the following three generations.…”
