- Genebank development for the conservation of livestock genetic resources in the United States of America
- Molecular characterization of breeds and its use in conservation
- Animal genetic resource trade flows: The utilization of newly imported breeds and the gene flow of imported animals in the United States of America
- Research opportunities in the field of animal genetic resources
- Present status of the conservation of livestock genetic resources in Brazil
- Saving threatened native breeds by autonomous production, involvement of farmers organization, research and policy makers: The case of the Sicilo-Sarde breed in Tunisia, North Africa
