In this study, genetic parameters were obtained for growth and cold tolerance of 99 Fenneropenaeus chinensis juvenile families by means of indoor artificial cooling (starting from 14°C, 2°C/d). A linear mixed model was fitted to estimate variance components using the ASReml software package. Heritabilities estimated for body weight (BW) and body length (BL) of F. chinensis juveniles were 0.078 ± 0.124 and 0.131 ± 0.133, respectively. The estimates of heritability were low in magnitude for both traits. The differences between the heritabilities estimated for the two growth traits were not significant with each other, and the heritabilities were not significantly different from zero (P > 0.05). The phenotypic and genetic correlation coefficients between BW and BL were as high as 0.9408 ± 0.0040 and 0.9562 ± 0.0551, respectively, and both were significantly different from zero (P < 0.01). The heritabilities of temperature at death (TAD) and cooling degree hours (CDH) were 0.265 ± 0.091 and 0.077 ± 0.058, respectively. The heritability estimates for TAD was moderate and significantly different from zero (P < 0.01). The correlation analysis indicated that the phenotypic correlation coefficient between TAD and CDH was -0.5470 ± 0.0174, and the genetic correlation coefficient was -0.6707 ± 0.3635. In the analysis of growth traits and cold tolerance traits, the values of phenotypic correlation coefficient were floating between -0.1055 and 0.1098, both were significantly different from zero (P < 0.05), while the genetic correlation had a larger range (0.0526 ~ 0.9914), and all were not significantly different from zero (P > 0.05). In this study, there was a low correlation between growth and cold tolerance traits, indicating that growth traits and cold tolerance traits should be considered collectively in the breeding program of shrimp. |
