The study looked at how genetics affect the growth and carcass weight of New Zealand white rabbits in a tropical dry forest area. They found that traits like litter size, weaning weight, and carcass weight have medium heritability, meaning they are influenced by genetics to some extent. The study also showed that maternal genetics play a bigger role than paternal genetics in these traits. The researchers categorized the rabbits based on their traits to help with future breeding plans. Overall, the study suggests that rabbit production in tropical conditions is similar to other places, and that genetics and environment both play a role in determining growth and carcass weight.
