Sığır Yetiştiriciliğini Tehdit Eden Kalıtsal Hastalıklar

Abstract

Kalıtsal hastalıklar çiftlik hayvanlarında önemli verim ve ekonomik kayıplara sebep olan önemli bir hastalık grubudur. Kalıtsal hastalıkların moleküler mekanizmalarını anlamak, hastalıkları sürüden uzaklaştırmada önemli avantajlarsağlamaktadır. Hastalıkların gen düzeyinde moleküler tekniklerle teşhis yöntemlerine önem verilmesi ile kalıtsal hastalıklar ucuz ve pratik olarak teşhis edilirken ekonomik kayıplar azaltılabilir. Bu derlemede sığır kalıtsal hastalıkları hakkında bilgi vermek amaçlanmıştır
