Genomic Selection - The future of livestock breeding

16 September 2022

Dr. Sayan Buaban is the Head of Research and Animal Genetic Evaluation Section at Department of Livestock Development (DLD), Thailand. He has spent more than 30 years working on DLD’s dairy cattle improvement program. From the conventional breeding methods to the current genomic selection approach, Dr. Sayan and his team has been playing vital role in improving the breeding efficiency and productivity of dairy cattle in Thailand. This great work has resulted in him winning the “Best Research by a Thailand Inventor” award in 2020. We had the privilege to speak with Dr. Sayan, to discuss about his bovine genotyping work, the impact towards farmers in Thailand, as well as the advantages of a genomic selection approach using the Illumina’s iScan system and the Illumina BovineSNP50 v3 BeadChip Microarray.
