Quantitative- and molecular-genetic effects on animal well-being: adaptive mechanisms.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jun 1994

Newman S

Abstract excerpt

Domestic farm animals play an important role in meeting some basic needs of humankind, especially food and clothing. The aspects of genetic improvement programs in livestock production pertinent to animal welfare and animal well-being are reviewed. A link is made between the evolutionary processes of adaptation and domestication and animal well-being. Animal behavior is a component of all these. Thus, the...
