Using egg production longitudinal recording to study the genetic background of resilience in purebred and crossbred laying hens

BACKGROUND: There is growing interest in using genetic selection to obtain more resilient farm animals (i.e. that are minimally affected by disturbances or rapidly recover from them). The aims of this study were to: (i) estimate the genetic parameters of resilience indicator traits based on egg prod...
