Research Question

  • To breed animals more resistant to infections

Research Gaps and Challenges

  • Improve resistance to infection by selective breeding or genetic modification

Solution Routes

  • Application of immunogenetic study findings to generating more resistant commercial poultry species
  • Translation of recent findings on possible innate immune determinants of susceptibility in avian species into generation of more resistant
    breeds
