A study on genotype x feeding interactions in hybrid broiler chickens

The interaction between genotype and protein level of the ration showed statistical significance at 0.1% level for the all traits studied. In some cases the genotype x feeding source of variation surpasses of the total variance. Similarly, the ranking of the genotypes was not consistent under the di...
