Introducing AAABG

The Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics is a professional organisation based in Australia and New Zealand for livestock scientists, breeders, educators, students and industry service providers. The major activity conducted by AAABG to achieve its objectives is an international conference held at approximately two year intervals.

AAABG Objectives

Our principal objectives are to: (i) promote scientific research on the genetics of animals, (ii) foster the application of genetics in animal production and (iii) develop communication among all those interested in the application of genetics to animal production, particularly breeders and their organisations, consultants, extension workers, educators and geneticists.

AAABG Web Sites

This site introduces a change in the structure of AAABG's on-line presence. The aim is to separate and simplify the display of information about the Association and membership matters from those dealing with the current conference and immediate past conference. Previously all of these were maintained on the one site which required pages with multiple menus and information blocks often causing a cluttered appearance. A simplified layout has been prepared for the new sites to improve ease of use. The different sites will be linked and each can be bookmarked if required.

This site deals with Association and membership matters. Two others will be devoted to (i) the current conference operations and (ii) Post-conference items from the immediate past conference. They are not complete at present and development will continue over the next few months.
