RNT #6 locking genes?

Locking the genes is one of the many inaccurate terms in gamefowl breeding. It is understandable because in gamefowl breeding many wrongly measure purity by bloodline names. Of course measuring purity by bloodline names is wrong, but this is what most are doing or it is their understanding. In genetics it is making many genes in the line homozygous. If the good traits are homozygous then 100% of the times these traits will be passed onto the next generation. In genetics purity is measured by homozygosity of genes in simple traits and preponderance of desirables in polygenic and quantitative traits. Not by purity of bloodline names.
