摘要： In this study, the heritability, repeatability, phenotypic correlation, and genetic correlation of the reproductive and growth traits of L. vannamei were investigated and estimated. Eight traits of 385 shrimps from forty-two families, including the number of eggs (EN), number of nauplii (NN), egg diameter (ED), spawning frequency (SF), spawning success (SS), female body weight (BW) and body length (BL) at insemination, and condition factor (K), were measured,. A total of 519 spawning records including multiple spawning and 91 no spawning records were collected. The genetic parameters were estimated using an animal model, a multinomial logit model (for SF), and a sire-dam and probit model (for SS). Because there were repeated records, permanent environmental effects were included in the models. The heritability estimates for BW, BL, EN, NN, ED, SF, SS, and K were 0.49 +/- 0.14, 0.51 +/- 0.14, 0.12 +/- 0.08, 0, 0.01 +/- 0.04, 0.06 +/- 0.06, 0.18 +/- 0.07, and 0.10 +/- 0.06, respectively. The genetic correlation was 0.99 +/- 0.01 between BW and BL, 0.90 +/- 0.19 between BW and EN, 0.22 +/- 0.97 between BW and ED, -0.77 +/- 1.14 between EN and ED, and -0.27 +/- 0.36 between BW and K. The heritability of EN estimated without a covariate was 0.12 +/- 0.08, and the genetic correlation was 0.90 +/- 0.19 between BW and EN, indicating that improving BW may be used in selection programs to genetically improve the reproductive output of L. vannamei during the breeding. For EN, the data were also analyzed using body weight as a covariate (EN-2). The heritability of EN-2 was 0.03 +/- 0.05, indicating that it is difficult to improve the reproductive output by genetic improvement. Furthermore, excessive pursuit of this selection is often at the expense of growth speed. Therefore, the selection of high-performance spawners using BW and SS may be an important strategy to improve nauplii production.
