Heritabilities of the number of Salmonella were estimated at and in the liver and in the spleen and at and in the genital organs in the first and second experiments respectively. The difference between the two experiments could result from sampling variations and from differences in the genetic structure of the two populations possibly including both heterosis and additive effects as well as their interaction in the first experiment. Genetic correlations between the number of bacteria in the genital organs and liver and in the first and second experiments respectively and spleen and were positive. Moreover a significant within-sire effect of VIL1 a marker gene for NRAMP1 was observed in 117
