Abstract:
The inheritance of sexual behaviour patterns was studied in species hybr-ids of Poeczliu ~ ~ I - Z C I I N I I
and Poecdia veliferu. In addition, the aggressive behaviour and some morphological characters have
been investigated and checked for a possible correlation between and within these three different traits
studied. All the characters are inherited polygenically. The minimum genetic factors could be
estimated onlv for some characters.
