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
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 […]
Notes on Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) | Biotechnology
The below mentioned article provides notes on microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery is the use of microorganisms to retrieve additional oil from existing wells, thereby enhancing the petroleum production of an oil reservoir. In this technique, selected natural microorganisms are introduced into oil wells to produce harmless by-products, such as slippery […]
