Chicks from lines genetically selected for high or low heat tolerance were compared to lines selected for high or low oxygen consumption. Oxygen consumption, survival time, respiration rate, lung capacity and body weight were determined. Selection for high oxygen consumption ahd high heat tolerance resulted in birds with similar characteristics. The high line birds for both heat tolerance and oxygen consumption had greater oxygen consumption, survival time and lung capacity but lower body weight.
对经过高温耐受性高低基因选育的品系雏鸡与经过耗氧量高低选育的品系雏鸡进行了比较。测定了耗氧量、存活时间、呼吸频率、肺容量和体重。高温耐受性和高耗氧量的选育产生了具有相似特征的鸡。高温耐受性和耗氧量高的品系鸡具有更高的耗氧量、存活时间和肺容量，但体重较低。
