Phaenoanalysis and quantitative inheritance (Budapest, 1969)
PHAENOANALYSIS AND QUANTITATIVE INHERITANCE Edited by GY. FÁBIÁN The volume contains several papers reporting on zoogenetical investigations. Although the species of the animals described differ widely, the problems tackled are identical, namely the phaenogenetical analysis of various forms and their hybrids on the basis of available growth equations. The papers provide abundant data on morphogenetic homeostasis and an attempt is made to make use of the information theory in zoogenetical investigations. A wide range of vertebrates is being treated including both domesticated and wild forms, as well as their hybrids. Papers describing practically extinct Hungarian species are of special interest. This volume is to be recommended to zoogenetical and zoological research workers, but also to experts of animal breeding, as useful practical information is also conveyed.
