About this Research Topic
This research topic aims to elucidate new insights into the application of 'Omic' technologies to identify new biomarkers in animal production and reproduction science. The goal is to generate important advances in the study of gamete interactions and their effects on offspring, while also elucidating the impact of new biomarkers on animal breeding and selection methods. The research will not only provide important benefits compared to conventional technologies, but also contribute to increasing animal health, welfare, reducing production costs, and increasing fertility.
To gather further insights into the application of 'Omic' technologies in animal production and reproduction science, we welcome articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes: research surrounding 'Omic' biomarkers and important fertility traits; application of 'Omics' to genetic resources for increasing reproductive/productive performance traits; studies on reproduction–nutrition-production traits using 'Omic' biomarkers; research on genomic and genetic biomarkers implicated in reproductive and production traits; studies on 'Omic' biomarkers-reproduction–health control interaction and efficient production traits; research on 'Omic' biomarkers and biodiversity protection programs, germplasm banking, and ex situ preservation; studies on 'Omics' and reproduction–welfare practices and efficient production traits; 'Omic' biomarkers and interactions among production-reproduction–environment (climate).
