Animal breeding

Procreation and rearing of animals under controlled conditions

Animal breeding is a branch of animal science concerned with the evaluation and selection of livestock for breeding based on genetic merit. Genetic merit may be estimated using best linear unbiased prediction and other methods to derive estimated breeding values (EBVs).

From Wikipedia

Animal breeding is a branch of animal science concerned with the evaluation and selection of livestock for breeding based on genetic merit. Genetic merit may be estimated using best linear unbiased prediction and other methods to derive estimated breeding values (EBVs). Breeding objectives may include traits related to growth rate, egg, meat, milk, or wool production, as well as reproductive performance, health, and other characteristics relevant to a particular breeding programme. The scientific theory of animal breeding incorporates population genetics, quantitative genetics, statistics, and increasingly molecular genetics, and draws on the pioneering work of Sewall Wright, Jay Lush, and Charles Henderson.
