Learning outcomes: After successfully mastering the material provided in this course, students will be able to: • to explain the genetic basis of the inheritance of traits of domestic animals • to show the sources of genetic variability and to formulate a model for quantitative traits. • to calculate genetic parameters: heritability, repeatability and genetic correlations. • to demonstrate knowledge of the principles of selection (effect of selection, selection differential and intensity, generation interval). • to show the concept of using the non-additive component of the genotypic value and all aspects of heterosis and complementarity of breeds in different crossbreeding schemes of domestic animals. • to calculate the breeding value (OV) and the most important methods for its evaluation, as well as the additional possibilities offered by genomic selection to the traditional approach to genetic evaluation • to propose the most important elements of the breeding and selection program, breed structure, breeding goals for the most important types of livestock and poultry.
