Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details the ten-year investigation into the genetic basis of disease resistance in animals. The author, a renowned animal geneticist, explores the concept of breeding for disease resistance in farm animals through the study of Salmonella in chickens. The author presents data… from various experiments and selective breeding programs to demonstrate that resistance to disease is a heritable trait, influenced by specific genes. The book discusses the implications of these findings for disease control and suggests that genetic selection could be a viable alternative to traditional disease prevention methods. It highlights the important role of genetics in animal health and disease management, emphasizing the potential benefits of breeding for resistance to improve animal welfare and productivity.
