Quick Take Conservation failures occur when the whole picture isn’t addressed and threats persist as populations decline.

The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is barred from species survival and breeding programs after losing an appeal for the loss of its accreditation. On Monday, the zoo said the Association of Zoos and ...

A group of researchers based at the University of Sydney has uncovered patterns that may be jeopardising the long-term success of worldwide animal breeding programs, which increasingly act as an ...

WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - With at least an eighth of the koala population already killed in the Australian wildfires, repopulation for that already vulnerable species will take the work of ...

Molecular breeding can significantly reduce the cost and time required to deliver improved plant and animal species for agricultural use. Advancements in genomic technologies are accelerating these ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Breaking up families can be sad, but in a new method for selecting passive livestock animals, that's a main ingredient for better long-term productivity, according to a Purdue ...

The study of genetic parameters has become increasingly central to optimising goat production systems worldwide. Researchers have long focused on estimating heritability, genetic correlations, and the ...

Researchers have developed an innovative software program for the simulation of breeding programs. The ''Modular Breeding Program Simulator'' (MoBPS) enables the simulation of complex breeding ...

A meta-analysis has found patterns that may be jeopardizing the long-term success of worldwide animal breeding programs, which increasingly act as an insurance against extinction in conservation, and ...
