This study estimated the genetic parameters of growth-related traits from 11-month-old olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) base population in which wild and cultured broodstocks were introduced. The heritability of body weight, total length, body height, body shape, and condition factor of the base population was estimated to be 0.754, 0.753, 0.789, 0.438, and 0.369, respectively. Genetic correlations between body weight and total length, between body weight and body height, and between total length and body height were 0.969, 0.960, and 0.960, respectively, showing highly positive correlation. Genetic correlations between body weight and body shape, between total length and body shape, between body height and body shape were -0.403, -0.344, and -0593, respectively, showing low negative correlation. Overall, olive flounder might be an appropriate selective breeding species with the high heritability of the traits in an 11-month-old population.

The experimental studies were intended to clarify the effects of leaf yield calculations, and also aimed at estimating the correlations between some characters for the selection of desirable stocks of mulberry trees. The analysis of covariances was the variance components procedures in a replicated trial for the varieties, and also it was used to obtain the genotypic, phenotypic and environmental correlations between the eight characters-branch length, node number, branch diameter, branch number per stock, total branch weight, old branch weight, new shoot and leaf weight, and leaf weight, etc. The results obtained are summarized as follows: Phenotypic, genotypic and environmental covariances are shown in Table 1 and phenotypic correlations, genotypic correlations and environmental correlations are shown in Table 2. Genotypic correlations were slightly higher than the corresponding phenotypic correlations between the characters in the varieties, but the variation in values due to the change of environment appeared between the characters. Genotypic correlations between the leaf yield of mulberry trees and other characters indicated that high leaf yield was genetically correlated with six characters namely branch length, node number, branch number per stock, total branch weight, old branch weight and new shoot weight, etc. It was also observed that lower correlations were appeared between the leaf yield and branch diameter, and branch diameter and other all characters studied in both genotypic and phenotypic correlation coefficients.

Heritability and genetic correlation for reproductive traits in Yorkshire pig breed were estimated using Bayesian method via Gibbs sampling. The data set consisted of 9,609 reproductive records at pig breeding farm in Korea. For estimating those parameters using Gibbs sampling, 5,000 cycles of ‘burn-in’ period were discarded among a total of 55,000 samples. Out of the remaining 50,000 samples, 5,000 estimates by each parameter were retained and used for analyses to avoid any correlation among adjacent samples. The reproductive trait considered in this study were total number of born piglets(TNB) and estimated by two different models. The estimated heritability and permanent environmental effect using Gibbs sampler were 0.12±0.020 and 10.9±1.63, respectively. Estimated genetic correlations considered parities as different traits were distributed from 0.99 to －0.13. Such results indicated that reproductive traits for sows should be considered as different traits.

Fourty lines of F4 progenies of an Adzuki bean cross, Jukdoo (Korean local variety) X Nesumimochi (Japanese variety) were used as the material, and these lines were grown in replicated trials in 1967. Phenotypic, genotypic and environmental covariances among all possible traits of eight character are calculated as shown in table 1. Phenotypic, genotypic and environmental correlations among all possible paris of eight characters were calculated as shown in table 2. In general, genotypic correlations were higher than the corresponding phenotypic corresponding phenotypic correlations. The genotypic correlations between seed yield (grain weight per plot) and oter agronomic characters indicated that seed yield was genetically associated with the character of pod number per plant, and grain number per plant, which is closely correlated with pod number pr plant, are affected more in Adzukl bean yield than the other agronomic characteracters.

A study was conducted on the genetic correlations and simple correlations between some characters of the plus trees of Pinus densiflora. The results can be summarized as follows. 1. Simple correlations height growth by age was measured and high correlation(above r=0.9) were observed. Therefore, early selection seems to be possible in the light of the results made up to 8 years old. 2. Genetic correlation between height and root collar diameter was 0.266 and the correlation between height and branch diameter was 0.091 and 0.391 was between root collar diameter and branch diameter.

This study was to compare year variations of heritability, phenotypic, genotypic and environmental correlations as well as pathway coefficients for main characters of tea tree to provide useful selection information for improving tea tree. The data collected from the performance yield trials from 1979 to 1981 were used in this study. I. The genetic variance of fresh fruit yielding, dryed fruit yielding and fresh weight of root was not only greatly varied with year, but also the largest among all characteristies studied. Other characteristics showed higher genetic variance than environmental variances, and year variances were not large. 2. Both year and variety x year interaction were highly significant sources of variation for all yield characteristics, and year variances were not large. 3. All characteristics showed high broad sense heritabilities, and the broad sense heritability was not varied with year. 4. The genetic correlation coefficients between fresh fruit yielding and dryed fruit yielding, fresh weight of root and Gigolpi, dryed weight of root and Gigolpi were positive, and the year variation was not large. S. The pathway coefficients of the character was not only greatly varied with year and the fresh weight of root affected directly on the Gigolpi.

Dihaploid lines derived from the another of the $F_1$ of single cross, SC72 $\times$ Hicks (Nicotiana tabacum L.) were estimated the variation, heritablities, genetic correlations and path-co-efficients on agronomic characters and chemical compositions. Dinaploids exhibited reduced vigor and growth when comparecd with the mid-parent value but had increased nicotine contents, and the range of dihaploids characters were deviated more than that of their parents. Heritabilities of days to flowering, leaves per plant, nicotine. contents, leaf size and plant height appeared high value, and the yield, value per kg. and reducing sugar contents were low. There were positive genetic correlations between yield, and value per kg., leaf width, leaves per plant and reducing sugar contents and negative genetic correlations appeared between nicotine contents and the other characters except for index of leaf shape. Path-coefficient analysis of genotypic correlation coefficients showed that leaves per plant and leaf width lave a high direct effect, and plant height and days to flowering have a high indirect effect on yield, respectively.
