Recursos genéticos animais e sistemas de exploraçao tradicionais em Portugal

In Portugal, there are 13 beef cattle breeds, 12 sheep breeds, 5 goat breeds, 2 swine breeds and 3 horse breeds identified, with total numbers of registered females, in 1999, of 70000, 136176, 43700, 6 520 and 8600, respectively. Despite the high genetic diversity represented by these native breeds,...
