Abstract: The canonical correlation analysis on 4 weight traits and 9 body size traits of Bihu pig showed that: the first and second canonical correlation coefficients between weight traits and body size traits was highly significant. The value was 0.9980 and 0.9933 respectively, which represented 98.95% for the total correlation.

Key words: Bihu pig, weight traits, body size traits, canonical correlation
