Summary
The Institute of Genetics and Cytology offers consumers DNA typing services for pigs for genes that control economically valuable traits under an outsourcing agreement and is looking for partners to conclude a distribution services agreement.
Description
DNA typing of animals is carried out according to genes that control economically valuable traits:
* multiple pregnancy in pigs (estrogen receptor gene);
* quality of meat products (5 genes);
* resistance of pigs to colibacillosis (2 genes);
* RNA-diagnosis of the reproductive syndrome virus.
Advantages and Innovations
The effectiveness of using DNA typing lies in a significant reduction in the costs of farms for the production of high-quality pork. The selection of animals for reproductive, fattening and meat qualities is accelerating.
