The genetic parameters of feed efficiency and its component traits in the turkey (Meleagris gallopavo)
Residual feed intake (RFI) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) can be incorporated into a breeding program as traits to select for feed efficiency. Alternatively, the direct measures used to calculate RFI and FCR can be analyzed to determine the underlying variation in the traits that impact overall eff...
