Ethological and immunological compatibility of sheep pairs

Population growth and improved living conditions require new ways of increasing animal production. To meet this demand for livestock products, in addition to increasing herd numbers, research must also focus on improving product quality based on the use of genetics, animal selection, and biotechnology. Mastery of these sciences makes it possible to predict the desired qualities of products by studying the external behavior and immunogenetic phenomena of the genital tracts of animals in order to determine the compatibility of parental pairs. Mating or artificial insemination of animals based on these principles will increase yields on livestock farms. It is therefore important that specialists in the field (biologists, veterinarians, zootechnicians) take this aspect into account in their practice.
