A total of forty adult (5 months old) rabbits of four different genetic groups consisting of 10 Chinchilla, 10 New Zealand black (NZB), 10 Hyla and 10 Dutch (BUT) were used for this study. Blood samples were collected from Chinchilla Male parent, Fl generation crossbred (CH x NZB) Male, Hyla female parent, Fl Hyla Male, Fl Dutch Male, and New Zealand black Male parent.
