[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 264642, member: 1683"] Brandon - As you have said - EPD's are about "Averages", and when one is dealing with the incredible number of Genes concerned with ANY trait it is more complicated than Algebraic Exponential Powers, regardless of the percent of accuracy. If this were not so, given the tremendous number of generations since the beginning of time, every species would look and perform exactly the same as any other member of that species, including human beings! Can you imagine how horrible THAT would be! Just imagine - everyone in the world would look like your 7th grade History teacher! Diversity is dominant, in spite of Homozygosity! That is the precise reason we must UNDERSTAND EPD's and Selection methods and technics in order to minimize negative responses and undesirable results. DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
