Learning objectives
At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
explain the difference between gene/allele, dominant/recessive, homozygous/heterozygous, genotype/phenotype;
distinguish the keys to genetic progress;
estimate the magnitudes of heritability and genetic variation for production traits;
interpret the principles of genetic evaluation.
You will reach these four learning objectives through two parts:
Part 1: Review of Mendelian Genetics
Part 2: Principle of genetic selection
