Genetic analysis of novel phenotypes for farm animal resilience to weather variability

Genetic analysis of novel phenotypes for farm animal resilience to weather variability

Abstract Background Climate change is expected to have a negative impact on food availability. While most efforts have been directed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, complementary strategies are necessary to control the detrimental effects of climate change on farm animal performance. The objec...
