									<p>The objective of this course is to provide a platform for understanding the biological changes occurring when applying (artificial) selection. The student should be able to reflect on the consequences from a scientific point of view and understand the physiological changes taking place. The following topics will be covered: ethical aspects of animal breeding, growth and development, maternal effects, social effects and group selection, genetic variation of behavioral traits, GxE interactions, robustness, trade-offs, adaptive capacity, and modelling genetics of feed efficiency.
