Should we aim for genetic improvement in host resistance or tolerance to infectious pathogens?

1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

There is an imperative to consider alternative strategies to pharmaceuticals to control infectious diseases amongst livestock. Recent advances in genetics and genomics have highlighted the potential for genetic control strategies to maintain high health and performance levels in livestock populations. This special research topic focuses on two alternative host defence strategies for coping with infectious...
