ECOLOGICAL INNOVATIONS IN ANIMAL BREEDING AND GENETICS

Abstract

The main products, such as meat, milk, eggs, fur, etc., are obtained thanks to the effective breeding of farm animals. Milk production is very important because it is one of the main foods for humans. Cattle give about 81% of the total milk production worldwide [2]. To obtain the desired productive indicators from animals, more and more research is being conducted in the world, including pangenomic, genomic, transcriptomic, epigenomic, etc. Modern studies illustrate biological processes, phenotypic formations, and evolution in general. Molecular genetics is an intensively developing branch of science that studies the structures that store and form genetic information. New ecological approaches to breeding and selection are systematically created and developed to increase the productivity of agricultural animals.
