Abstract

Since Falconer (1952) extended the idea of genetic correlation to include the iriteraction of the same trait of the same genetic groups to two different environments, the idea has been widely accepted by quantitative geneticists. Robertson (1959) presented the theoretical basis for Falconer's idea and provided various estimation formulae with appropriate standard error for each estimation. Recently Dickerson (1962) presented a similar method for estimating genetic correlation in terms of genetic and genotype by environment interaction variance components obtained from two-way classification analysis of variance. This method yields an estimate of average degree of genetic correlation, when many environments were involved for testing
