Description of the research topic:
As molecular genetic methods are continuously becoming widespread in animal science we would like to examine the application possibilities of SNP chips in rabbit breeding. Although so far the genomic selection is mostly used in species where the individual value of the animals is high based on our previous activity (selecting the rabbits for muscle volume) the objective of this research topic is to identify the markers involved in muscle production. The final objective is to use only the identified markers as an extension of the present breeding program. Thus the leading position of the Pannon White rabbit breed from the aspect of meat production could be maintained. As the SNP chip is very expensive realization of this research topic require the funding additional projects.
