This website has been developed by the Cornell Applied Dairy Cattle Genetics Class, ANSC 3310, to provide explanation and clarification on the genetics of dairy cattle and the application of genetic evaluations towards animal improvement. It is geared towards non-scientists with pages centered on education, research, and producer usage. Students chose their own topics of interest for their webpages. The majority of the pages are informational but a few are designed for extension/classroom education and producer management use with materials available to download.

This Internet-based educational resource on genetics was designed to expose university undergraduates and the general population to the basic genetics concepts and principles. By presenting basic genetics principles in a simple and concise manner and at a level accessible to the general public, our web site provides a large segment of the student population and the general public with the opportunity to become participants in the genetics revolution.
