More efficient cows are better for the environment: Dr Cheryl Quinton of AbacusBio Limited presenting at #WCGALP Proud to be part of such a superb team!
To start the Breeding Strategies session, something a little different: Genomic selection in honey bees from Pim Brascamp. Bee's different genetic structure and mating systems make for an interesting challenge. ICAR, Interbull & WCGALP 2018
Great to hear a talk so close to my own research: results of beef crossbreeding strategies in South Africa from Anette Theunissen, showing the potential to use combinations of diverse breeds to increase efficiency ICAR, Interbull & WCGALP 2018
Great to see a presentation more close to my heart with some breed conservation of lineback cattle. Veronika Kukučková presents her work on the population structure of Slovak Pinzgauer cattle. ICAR, Interbull & WCGALP 2018
