What is Genomic Selection in Livestock Breeding about?

Genomic selection (GS) enhances livestock breeding by using genome-wide molecular markers to predict genetic merit, improving accuracy and sustainability. The process involves defining breeding goals, establishing reference populations, and genotyping, with applications across various livestock species. Challenges such as high costs and limited data infrastructure can be addressed through strategies like using low-density SNP panels and building local reference populations.
