Popis: | 1. It has been hypothesised that, for post-hatching domestic birds reared under good conditions, the relative growth rate R = (dW/dt)/W = dlnW/dt is a linear function of lnW; W is body weight. It followed that dW/dt = B.W. ln(A/W), where A is mature weight, and, by integration, that weight over time is described by a Gompertz function: W |
