Box 375, Pietermaritzburg, 3200 Republic of South Africa Since poultry breeding started in earnest over 50 years ago there have been considerable environmental changes in the industry, some beneficial (improved disease control, housing, nutrition, lighting) and some deleterious (increased stocking rates, large...
متن کاملGenome-wide selection in poultry
In poultry breeding programsownedby private companies, selection is donewithin closed populations based on comprehensive phenotypic data recording in both pure and cross line birds under standardised housing conditions. Due to sex-limited data recording, male selection for egg quality and production traits is basedmainly on female sibling tests. Early selection of the most promising male within...
متن کاملPoultry Breeding: Progress and Prospects for Genetic
Estimates of genetic gains and present performance of layers and broilers were reviewed Current and developing technologies pertinent to the breeding of layers and broilers were discussed with some of their assumptions and limitations. Under present methods, contemporary theory and selection technologies are critiqued Under developing technologies, selection for adaptation to production environ...
متن کاملPoultry genome sequences: progress and outstanding challenges.
The first build of the chicken genome sequence appeared in March, 2004 - the first genome sequence of any animal agriculture species. That sequence was done primarily by whole genome shotgun Sanger sequencing, along with the use of an extensive BAC contig-based physical map to assemble the sequence contigs and scaffolds and align them to the known chicken chromosomes and linkage groups. Subsequ...
متن کاملProgress in Selection
There has been recent progress in the selection problem, and in median-nding in particular, after a lull of ten years. This paper reviews some ancient and modern results on this problem, and suggests possibilities for future research.
