- Default Title
Description
The significant advancements in poultry genetics highlight the transition from traditional breeding methods to modern genomic technologies. The evolution of poultry production, which began with the domestication of the red junglefowl, has seen remarkable improvements in productivity through traditional selection focused on phenotypic traits such as growth rate, egg production, and feed efficiency. While these methods have yielded substantial gains, their limitations underscore the necessity for contemporary genomic tools that facilitate more precise and effective genetic enhancements. The integration of high-throughput -omics datasets, including genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, has revolutionized the field of poultry genetics. These technologies enable researchers to analyze vast amounts of biological data. The genetic improvement in poultry including traditional selection and molecular genetic tools. As well as this book emphasizes the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genomic selection, which facilitates the identification of genetic variations linked to specific traits, such as disease resistance and feed efficiency.
