Özet
İngilizce (OpenAlex)
In this study, Path analysis was used to determine the direct and indirect effects of some morphological traits such as wither height, sacrum height, body length, chest depth, chest girth and chest width on the weaning weight of sheep. The data was obtained from 200 heads of Awassi lambs raised in Gaziantep province. The results of the path analysis indicated that the variants of sacrum height and body length sustained the most significant effect on the weaning weight. Consequentely, chest girth and body length were the most favorable measurements to estimate weaning weight in Awassi and could be used as a reliable criteria for practical selection in Awassi lambs.
