Bioinformatics and Animal Genetics: Concepts, Tools, Applications: Introduction to Bioinformatics

In the rapidly evolving field of animal genetics and breeding, the integration of computational biology and informatics has revolutionized the way genetic data is understood, analyzed, and applied. Bioinformatics & Animal Genetics & Breeding: Concepts, Tools, and Applications comes at a pivotal time, as the livestock industry moves toward data-driven breeding strategies to enhance productivity, animal health, and sustainability.This book serves as a vital bridge between classical animal breeding principles and the molecular and computational tools that define modern livestock research. Readers are introduced to bioinformatics databases, sequence analysis techniques, functional genomics, population genetics, and computational platforms that are now essential in breeding programs.Dr. Shahid Ahmad Shergojry combines his expertise in animal genetics and breeding with a clear and systematic approach to bioinformatics education. The result is a comprehensive and practical resource for students, researchers, veterinarians, and breeders seeking to integrate genomic technologies into field applications.More than just a reference, this work is a guide for solving real-world challenges.
