Key Genetic Parameters for Population Management [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 Population management has the primary task of maximizing the long-term competitiveness of a breed. Breeds compete with each other for being able to supply consumer demands at low costs and also for funds from conservation programs.
