Genetic information gained through the study of the inheritance of growth pattern and their certain body characteristics in reciprocal crosses of Broad Breasted Bronze - Charlevoix turkeys should provide a basis for the development and improvement of a small type of turkey such as the Charlevoix. Any inherent study of this kind must be carried through at least a three year period, to allow for the necessary reciprocal crosses within the progeny of the initial mating to bring forth Inherent differences existent within the parental types. The results which are presented in this thesis are therefore representative of the FI generation, but cannot be considered definite until future generations are studied.
