Genomics & DNA Testing
Advancing Bos Indicus Genetics for the Future
At Bos Indicus International, we leverage cutting-edge genomic technology to help breeders make more informed decisions. By using DNA testing and genomic evaluations, we provide valuable insights into traits such as fertility, disease resistance, feed efficiency, growth rates, and milk production—ensuring the continued improvement of Bos Indicus cattle worldwide.
Why Genomics Matter in Cattle Breeding
Genomic testing allows breeders to:
✅ Identify superior breeding stock at an early age
✅ Improve accuracy in selecting replacement heifers and bulls
✅ Enhance herd performance with proven genetic data
✅ Detect hereditary traits affecting meat and milk production
✅ Reduce inbreeding risks and improve hybrid vigor
Genomic Testing Services
We offer a range of DNA-based services tailored to Bos Indicus breeds, including:
Parentage Verification – Confirm pedigree accuracy through DNA markers.
Breed Composition Analysis – Identify genetic purity and ancestry percentages.
Performance Trait Testing – Evaluate markers for growth, carcass quality, fertility, and milk yield.
Genetic Defect Screening – Detect undesirable recessive traits or disease susceptibility.
All genomic testing follows international standards, ensuring reliable and actionable genetic information for breeders.
The Role of Genomics in Bos Indicus Breeds
Bos Indicus cattle have unique genetic advantages, including heat tolerance, parasite resistance, and efficiency in tropical environments. Genomic testing helps refine these traits, allowing breeders to:
Improve adaptability for hot, humid, and drought-prone regions
Enhance resistance to ticks, flies, and internal parasites
Select for faster weight gain and higher carcass yield
Increase fertility and reduce calving difficulties
By combining traditional breeding knowledge with modern genomic science, Bos Indicus International ensures that cattle breeders can make data-driven decisions for stronger, healthier, and more productive herds.
