Abstract
Abstract This review aims to summarize and synthesize the fragmented information available on the genetic improvement of local goats (criollo, indigenous, native) on the American and other continents, where populations with these goats have an important role in food security and the economy of rural communities, as well as in conservation of biodiversity and productivity improvement. Topics such as the current state of goat production globally, conservation programs, resistance to parasites and diseases, use of phenotypical characteristics and genomic information, and molecular markers for genetic improvement are addressed. The main challenges, opportunities, and limitations described in recent literature concerning local goats in the immediate future are discussed.
期刊介绍：
Archives Animal Breeding is an open-access journal publishing original research papers, short communications, brief reports, and reviews by international researchers on scientific progress in farm-animal biology. The journal includes publications in quantitative and molecular genetics, genetic diversity, animal husbandry and welfare, physiology, and reproduction of livestock. It addresses researchers, teachers, stakeholders of academic and educational institutions, as well as industrial and governmental organizations in the field of animal production.
