maternal effects for weaning weight of
lambs.
Obervations on the progenis of 3325
rams recorded in the Sheep Breeding Ass-
ociations in Iceland were included. These
rarns had sired a least ten lambs with
weight records as well as at least ten
daughters with production records. The
correlation was estimated —0.43 as-
suming that h2d=h2m=0.20.
