The first step toward genetic selection for host tolerance to infectious pathogens: obtaining the tolerance phenotype through group estimates

Reliable phenotypes are paramount for meaningful quantification of genetic variation and for estimating individual breeding values on which genetic selection is based. In this paper, we assert that genetic improvement of host tolerance to disease, although desirable, may be first of all handicapped...
