| Publisher Description: This special re-print edition of Helen Dean King's book "Studies on Inbreeding" provides insight into the subject of inbreeding animals for certain characteristics. Published in 1919, this text explores the impacts of inbreeding using the scientific method. Professor King utilized albino rats in her research on inbreeding and investigated its impact on a number of different characterics that are of importance to animal breeders. Chapters include The Effects of Inbreeding on the Growth and Variability In Body Weights, The Effects of Inbreeding on Fertility, The Effects of Inbreeding With Relation To Sex Ratio and A Further Study on The Effects of Inbreeding on the Growth and Variability in Body Weights. This will be found to be a valuable resource to breeders of all types of domestic animals who are looking to greatly improve their stock.
