Marco Milanesi graduates in Agricoltural Science in 2008 at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (Piacenza - Italy), where he also got his master degree in Animal Production in 2010. In 2015 he achieved the Ph.D. in Agro-food System (AGRISYSTEM) at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (Piacenza). He worked at the Institute of Zootechnics of the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Piacenza and, as Postdoctoral Researcher, at Laboratory of Animal Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of the Sao Paulo State University (UNESP) in Araçatuba (SP Brazil). In this moment he is Postdoctoral Researcher at Università della Tuscia - DIBAF (Viterbo - Italy). He has been involved in different research projects focusing on the use of molecular genetics in animal breeding and livestock biodiversity. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

All animal species carry a genetic load of disadvantageous allelic variants. Those that are lethal occur only in the heterozygous state while those non-lethal can reduce the fitness of homozygous individuals for the variant. The long-term destiny of these mutations in outbred species is to decrease in frequency, due to negative selection, and disappear. However, in livestock populations t…
