Hi, I am working on a theoretical quantitative genetics paper exploring rank distributions of parents and progeny based off of genetic (narrow heritability) , GXE, and environmental (random, maternal effects) influences. I want to test some data but public datasets of complete (not summarized by moments or correlations) data of parent-progeny phenotypes are hard to find.

Ideally, I would like a data set with animal ID, animal sex, sire and dam ID, sire and dam phenotype, and animal phenotype. Best case would be an approximately outbred population but I accept a lot of agricultural and lab animals have some inbreeding present so I can take what I can get a long as it is not a consciously inbred line or with frequent backcrossing, etc.

Also, the number of progeny per coupling is an important variable so animals with a moderate number of offspring (5-10) per female would be appreciated.

Thanks for any help.
