SABRE - Cutting edge genomics for sustainable animal breeding
Project
Project code: 16250
Contract period: 01.04.2006
- 31.03.2010
Budget: 13,900,000 Euro
Purpose of research: Basic research
SABRE will provide the fundamental knowledge of the genomics and epigenetics of animal health, food safety and food quality traits of livestock species, together with the strategies to deliver such technologies for use in selection. This will enable producers to move animal breeding and production towards more sustainable, environmentally and welfare friendly, low-input systems, that deliver safe and high quality foods in line with consumer expectations and European Policy.
