Abstract

To 2050, with the doubling demand for livestock, poultry and fishery products, quality and safety of the products face serious challenges. The quantity and quality safety protection of livestock, poultry and fishery products and the restructuring promotion of agricultural production need significant breakthroughs in the research field of animal germplasm resources and modern breeding biotechnology. The scientific and technological advance can provide important technical support and guarantee for the development of modern livestock, poultry and fishery products.
