Local cattle breeds in Europe [PDF]
, 2010 Which policies and strategies are required to successfully maintain our European Farm Animal Genetic Resources? The European local cattle populations were a target in the EURECA project, co-funded by the European Commission (EU AGRI GENRES 870/04). The general aim was to better understand the state of the breeds, to identify factors that contribute to ...

SNP-Based Genotyping Provides Insight Into the West Asian Origin of Russian Local Goats
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Specific local environmental and sociocultural conditions have led to the creation of various goat populations in Russia. National goat diversity includes breeds that have been selected for down and mohair production traits as well as versatile local ...

SPATIAL SCALE OF LOCAL BREEDING HABITAT QUALITY AND ADJUSTMENT OF BREEDING DECISIONS
Ecology, 2008 Experimental studies provide evidence that, in spatially and temporally heterogeneous environments, individuals track variation in breeding habitat quality to adjust breeding decisions to local conditions. However, most experiments consider environmental variation at one spatial scale only, while the ability to detect the influence of a factor depends ...

The risk status of Polish local breeds under conservation programmes – new approach
, 2020 Native breeds of farm animals, despite their unique characteristics and adaptability to diverse and often adverse environmental conditions, are at risk due to their lower profitability and corresponding declining use.
