Extract

Part I described the growth of Angoni cattle as shown by changes in live weight. This Part deals with proportional growth as shown by linear growth and carcass characters.

LINEAR GROWTH

A virtually complete summary of the basic work on linear growth has been given by Brody (1945) and specific references will therefore be quoted only as required for discussion.
