- Abstract
This editorial discusses the use of omics approaches in livestock genetics, specifically focusing on studies that have used large-scale datasets to understand genetic traits in various livestock animals. The studies mentioned in the article examine genes associated with growth, meat production, and skin development in pigs, ducks, rabbits, and donkeys. The article emphasizes the importance of these studies in advancing our understanding of farm animal genetics and improving breeding strategies. The authors also highlight the need for more multiomic analyses and integration of omics technologies with phenomics in breeding programs. Overall, these studies contribute to a better understanding of the genetic architecture of livestock species and have implications for the livestock industry.
