Abstract
THE classic studies of Hammond1 on the mutton qualities of sheep initiated a great volume of work on the problems associated with the production of high-quality meat. The chief technique used in this field has been that of ‘quantitative growth analysis’. By this means, changes due to different genetic factors between breeds within a species1,2 and changes due to different patterns of growth have been studied, and the results interpreted in terms of the theories of allometric and heterogenic growth and centripetal development first postulated by Brody4 and Huxley5.
