Phenotypic means and genetic estimates for HSP70 induced levels, measured in the haemocyte (intracellular) and serum (extracellular) fractions of the haemolymph of challenged Haliotis rufescens considering the two developmental stages together.

Genetic estimates of the additive genetic variance (VA); residual variance (VR); phenotypic variance (VP); heritability (h2); and coefficients of additive genetic variance (CVA) and residual variance (CVR).Immune response through HSP70 expression was measured two times in abalone belonging to 60 full-sib families (young and near harvest adults; n = 849 measures). Genetic parameters were estimated using two models. Model 1 included the order of sampling nested in the year of sampling as a fixed effect; and Model 2 included the age of the abalone at the moment of sampling as a co-variable.Phenotypic means and genetic estimates for HSP70 induced levels, measured in the haemocyte (intracellular) and serum (extracellular) fractions of the haemolymph of challenged Haliotis rufescens considering the two developmental stages together.
