R&D Solutions for Goat
BioVenic leverages our expertise and advanced technology platform in animal-related research and development to develop customized goat breeding and related research solutions for our customers' diverse project objectives. We are committed to providing support for the further exploitation of molecular markers and functional genes for economically important traits in goats. In addition, we provide animal veterinary medicine and feed development services to meet our customers' research and development needs in a full range of animal-related fields.
Background of Goat
The goat industry is an important part of the grass-fed livestock industry and is of great significance in promoting national economic development. Depending on the natural environment and social needs, there are many different breeds of goats, such as dairy goats, meat goats and woolen goats. Compared with livestock such as dairy cattle and pigs, goat breeding research started late, and the breeding foundation is relatively weak, resulting in slow progress in goat breeding. In recent years, with the development of molecular biology, molecular genetics and bioinformatics, goat breeding has evolved from traditional phenotypic selection to molecular marker-assisted selection. The innovation of modern molecular biotechnology has greatly accelerated the breeding and genetic research process of goats.
