Recent development of DNA markers provides powerful tools for population genetic analyses. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) result from a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based fingerprinting technique that can detect multiple restriction fragments in single polyacrylamide gel, and thus are potentially useful studies. Because AFLP have to be analysed as dominant loci order estimate diversity structure parameters, one must assume (amplified) alleles identical state, recessive...
Indirect modification of animal genomes by interspecific hybridization, cross-breeding, and selection has produced an enormous spectrum phenotypic diversity over more than 10,000 yr domestication. Using these established technologies, the farming community successfully increased yield efficiency production in most agricultural species while utilizing land resources that are often unsuitable for other purposes. Moving forward, well-being sustainability moral economic priorities consumers...
Abstract Animal biotechnologies have the potential to improve sustainability and security of our global food systems. Government regulatory authorities are responsible for ensuring safety their citizens consume, whether it is produced via conventional breeding methods or biotechnologies. While some countries implemented animal biotechnology oversight policies, many yet develop theirs. Historically, approvals were required before products could enter marketplace, high cost approval process...

The objective of this study was to determine whether or not reproductive performance in cattle produced by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is significantly different from that their genetic donors. To address question, we directed two longitudinal studies using embryo production procedures: (1) superovulation followed artificial insemination (AI) and collection (2) ultrasound-guided ovum pick-up vitro fertilization (OPU-IVF). Collectively, these represent the largest data set available...
One hundred six commercial hybrids of current importance in U.S. maize, Zea mays L., production were profiled for 46 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) probes. Objectives to (i) compare diversity among with that found public lines; (ii) reveal associations hybrids; (iii) measure the correlation between RFLP and pedigree distances; (iv) determine impact on from usage similar genotypes. Of variants 150 lines 82% hybrids. Only three not also lines. The RFLPs, therefore, showed...
