The researchers explained that their study dealt with the issue of using the coefficient of variation to study the homogeneity of carcass characteristics for three genetic lines of Japanese quail. .
They explained that their study aimed to evaluate the homogeneity of carcass characteristics for three genetic lines of Japanese quail using the coefficient of variation.
They added that their study concluded that the carcass characteristics of Japanese quail differ between the three genetic lines (white, brown, grey). The high coefficient of variation values may be due to the bird’s breeding system.
