| Abstract | ||
| The present study was conducted at the poultry farm The Department of Animal Resources, College of Agriculture-Anbar University, on quail flock (coturnix Japonica), (78 family) .The objective of this study was to estimate the genetic and phenotypic parameters(heritability ,genetic and phenotypic correlations and breeding volues) in quail birds depending on certain blood biochemicial traits (cholesterol and total protein) and productive traits (body weight of two and four,weeks of age, age and weight at sexual maturity ,weekly feed consumption ,frist egg weight,partial egg production , egg mass , and egg weight ,and qualitative traits of eggs (yolk weight,albumin weight ,yolk to albumin ratio), The study also included genetic evaluation of certain sires according to progeny data. The overall means of cholesterol and total serum protein,were 175.12 (mg100 ml), 4.50 (g100ml) respectively,and Heritability of cholesterol and total protein were 0.26, 0.34 respectively. The genetic and phenotypic correlation among different studied traits were high to modirate values | ||
