Animal Board Invited Review: Practical Applications Of Genomic Information In Livestock, D. P. Berry, Matthew L. Spangler Sep 2023

Animal Board Invited Review: Practical Applications Of Genomic Information In Livestock, D. P. Berry, Matthew L. Spangler

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Access to high-dimensional genomic information in many livestock species is accelerating. This has been greatly aided not only by continual reductions in genotyping costs but also an expansion in the services available that leverage genomic information to create a greater return-on-investment. Genomic information on individual animals has many uses including (1) parentage verification and discovery, (2) traceability, (3) karyotyping, (4) sex determination, (5) reporting and monitoring of mutations conferring major effects or congenital defects, (6) better estimating inbreeding of individuals and coancestry among individuals, (7) mating advice, (8) determining breed composition, (9) enabling precision management, and (10) genomic evaluations; genomic …
