Description:	Several selection experiments and breeding programs have been established in different parts of the world. Both purebred arid cross-bred populations of beef cattle have been selected for different traits of economic importance. With some exceptions, the general rule in projects of that nature has been the absence of appropriate methods in the design of the experiment to measure the selection response after some generations of selection, that is, once established there is no possibility to evaluate the selection program in an experimentally critical manner.
