AbstractAbstract
[en] The international symposium was attended by about 130 participants from 45 countries and included 83 scientific presentations of which 42 were posters. This volume covers four principal and interrelated topics: adaptation of animals to the environment, and animal reproduction, health and nutrition. Within each topic, consideration is given to those nuclear and related techniques currently employed in investigative research and their usefulness in studying animal production systems. Progress towards new areas of application and new techniques is also covered, particularly the development and practicability of immunoassay and related biotechnological methods for the diagnosis of livestock diseases. A separate abstract was prepared for each of the papers in this volume

AbstractAbstract
[en] Genotype x environment interactions occur because genotypes differ both in their inherent levels of productivity, which determine the maximum levels of productivity that are possible, and in their resistance to environmental stresses, which governs the proportion of that maximum which is actually expressed. The major environmental stresses considered are climatic factors, external parasites, internal parasites, diseases and variations in the quantity and quality of feed available. Improvements in productivity depend either on increasing the inherent levels of resistance while enhancing or maintaining the existing levels of inherent productivity, or on modifying the environment to control the stresses to enable a higher proportion of the inherent levels of productivity to be manifested. In extensive grazing systems the depressing effects of high air temperatures, humidity and solar radiation can best be reduced through the use of genotypes of high heat resistance. Controlling parasites and parasite-borne diseases by chemotherapy is limited by a number of factors. Prospects for the success of an immunological approach to the control of disease organisms through the use of improved vaccination methods and by the use of resistant genotypes are analysed. Ways of developing genotypes that have high resistance are discussed. The most intractable problem is the quantity and quality of the available feed. The possible role of supplementary feeding with non-protein N, rumen-soluble S and other minerals in increasing productivity is considered by comparing the responsiveness of different genotypes to these supplements under controlled conditions. Manipulating growth rates through use of growth promotants and metabolic depressants is compared with the potential advantages associated with use of genotypes that have an inherent ability to achieve the same result. The role of various strategies to improve fertility is discussed in relation to the genotype x environment interactions that are known to occur
