Genetic parameters and pedigree–based selective breeding outcomes for productivity traits in industrial black soldier fly (hermetia illucens L.) production systems

Armel Donkpegan, Alexandra Guigue, Nicolas Berteau, Léo Compernolle et al.

Short summary

Seven generations of family selection for larval body weight in black soldier flies (Hermetia illucens) yielded indicative genetic improvement, with heritability estimates ranging from 0.006 (female body weight) to 0.58 (restricted-feed larval weight).
