In a tilapia hatchery, a certain population of Nile tilapia broodstock (GA) appears to have low egg production performance. Another group (GB) was found to have a higher than normal egg production performance. When the two populations are mated (GAXGB), and compared to the pure breed (i.e. GAxXGA and GBxGB), the following production performance are achieved: 1. GA x GB a. 90% of offspring has 700 egg produced per fish b. 10% of offspring has 300 eggs produced per fish 2. GA X GA a. Average offspring egg production is 250 eggs per fish 3. GB x GB a. Average offspring egg production is 1000 eggs per fish. Is this egg production performance genetic in nature? Provide a logical explanation for your analysis.
