There is considerable genetic diversity in the livestock of developing countries, much of which controls traits that influence adaptability to harsh environments, productivity and susceptibility to disease and parasitism. However, little if any data on these genetic resources are available. Economic analysis can play an important role in ensuring that conservation efforts are appropriately focused. […]

Impact of Transgenic in Livestock Sector | Biotechnology
Article shared by :
In this article we will discuss about the impact of transgenic in livestock sector. Although gene-based technologies have the potential to improve the efficiency of livestock production, thereby ensuring better returns for the farmers, the economic impact of transgenics in the livestock sector will be much less than in the crop sector. However, the global […]
3 Main Protocols to Control Reproductive Diseases | Biotechnology
Article shared by :
Reproductive technologies can also be used to control reproductive diseases by accurately following the protocols: 1. Artificial Insemination 2. Embryo Transfer 3. In Vitro Embryo Production. Protocol # 1. Artificial Insemination (Al): The conception rate in field AI programmes in developing countries is very low, and therefore the desired effect in terms of animal improvement […]
