Dear all,
Please find attached the final programme for the ASGGN meeting, to be held
on Sunday, the 25th of August, at the ICC banquet room.
Session 1 – The age of microbiomes Chaired by John McEwan
13.00-15.00
• Defining the impact of host genetics on the rumen microbiome: where we
are? Leluo Guan, University of Alberta
• High-throughput metagenome sequencing for prediction of quantitative
traits. John McEwan, AgResearch
• Enteric Fermentation Flagship Project: Rumen microbiomes to predict
methane emissions from cattle. Larissa Zetouni, AgResearch
• High-throughput processing of rumen samples for microbial profiling.
Larissa Zetouni, AgResearch
Session 2 – Feed efficiency and methane emissions in livestock Chaired
by Yvette de Haas
15.30-17.30
• Feed efficiency and methane production
Yvette de Haas, Wageningen University & Research
• Creation of common models (calibration equations) for MIR based
prediction of CH4. Nicolas Gengler, University of Liège
• Power analysis shows that recording methane needs to be on a large
scale before it can be included in a breeding program.
Michael Aldridge, Wageningen University & Research
• Breeding for low methane New Zealand sheep Suzanne Rowe, AgResearch
• Potential role of the bovine rumen microbe on inter-animal variability
of SARA susceptibility, feed efficiency and methane production during
transition period. Jeyamalar Jeyanathan, Ghent University
• The Canada Efficient Dairy Genome Project. Christine Baes, University
of Guelph
