This project aims to enhance dairy sheep breeding in Mediterranean regions by identifying genetic markers linked to milk fat production in Churra sheep. The research will utilize modern genetics to improve traditional breeding methods, ensuring the preservation of local breeds and their unique traits.
Dairy sheep production in Mediterranean countries is based on the regional exploitation of a great variety of breeds, whose milk is processed into high quality cheese.
The maintenance of these local breeds is strategically important from genetic diversity and environmental perspectives.
Modern molecular genetics tools can be used to increase the efficiency of classic breeding programs in dairy sheep.
Previously to the development of effective marker- or gene-assisted protocols, it was necessary…
