Animal Genetics Breeding Metabolomics Services
The development of animal phenomics characterized by precision and high throughput as well as physiological genomics and physiological genetics research has forced the increased use of metabolomics techniques and methods in the study of resolving the genetic mechanisms of economically important traits in animals. Variations in the animal genome do not necessarily have a direct effect on the animal phenotype, but changes in the associated metabolic molecules may be the end result of that variation. Metabolomics data allows correlation analysis of phenotypic and genetic variants. Creative Proteomics provides a one-stop metabolomics solution for animal genetic breeding research.
Metabolomics analysis services can be applied to animal genetics breeding research:
- Estimation of molecular genetic parameters of animal metabolism: metabolic levels within an organism change over time and are more susceptible to environmental and lifestyle habits. The metabolomic profile of each biological sample simply portrays the metabolic state of that individual at a given time. When performing genetic analysis of metabolic molecule expression as an intermediate trait, the share of genetic factors explaining the phenotypic variation of these metabolic molecules needs to be fully understood.
- Analysis of metabolic profiling differences between breeds: In metabolomics studies of domesticated animals such as cattle, pigs and chickens, some metabolic molecules are screened as biomarkers to distinguish between breeds by testing animal serum, tissues, milk and other study materials.
- Metabolome genome-wide association analysis: The expression of metabolic molecules detected in serum, blood, urine and other body fluids are used as phenotypic values to carry out genome-wide association analysis of metabolic molecules.
- Screening for biomarkers affecting economically important traits: Correlation or difference analysis between metabolic molecules and economically important traits is studied to screen biomarkers. Using these screened metabolic molecules as biomarkers, they are applied in breeding marker-assisted selection, thus improving the accuracy of selection.
