Genetic gain in livestock populations and applicationof modern biotechniques of gametes and embryons

Publisher:

Committee on Biotechnology PAS ; Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry PAS

Abstract:

The objective of this paper was to present an influence of some new biotechnologies on theincrease of the livestock genetic gain. The effects of the following biotechniques were discussed:embryo transfer, multiple ovulation, in vitro fertilization of oocytes, embryo and semen sexing,eloning as well as creating transgenic animals. Application of these biotechniques increasesselection intensity and descreases genetic variability (except for ereating transgenic individuals).Moreover, modification of classical models of evaluation of the genetic value of animals is necessary.
