Scope
Livestock Genomics aims to publish basic, applied, and methodological research toward a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying the expression of complex phenotypes in farm animals, as well as innovative strategies for the genetic improvement of livestock and aquaculture species.
Scope
The section aims to publish basic, applied, and methodological research towards a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying the expression of complex phenotypes in farm animals, as well as innovative strategies for the genetic improvement of livestock and aquaculture species. Specifically, we welcome papers on the following topics:1) Identification of genes and genetic variants related to complex traits.
2) Characterization of genes and biological pathways underlying economically important traits.
3) Incorporation of genomic information into genetic evaluations and selection approaches, as well as the development of mating strategies for better exploring genetic diversity and non-additive genetic effects.
4) Development of genomic tools and sequence information for agriculturally relevant species.
Indexed in: PubMed, PubMed Central, Scopus, Google Scholar, DOAJ, CrossRef, Cabi, CLOCKSS
PMCID: all published articles receive a PMCID
Livestock Genomics welcomes submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy and Practice Reviews, Review, Systematic Review and Technology and Code.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Livestock Genomics, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Livestock Genomics will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Genetics and Veterinary Science.
