Christine F. Baes was born in Southwestern Ontario. [3] Having grown up around cows on a dairy farm, [4] she completed her Bachelors degree at the University of Guelph, she then finished her Masters of Science degree in Animal Welfare at the University Hohenheim.
The size of the bovine genome is 2.7 Gb (2.7 billion base pairs). [4] It contains approximately 35,092 [4] genes of which 14,000 are common to all mammalian species. Bovines share 80 percent of their genes with humans; cows are less similar to humans than rodents (humans and rodents belong to the clade of Supraprimates) and dogs (humans and dogs belong to the clade of Boreoeutheria).

From 1991 to 1993 she worked as a livestock and dairy farm advisor for the UC Cooperative Extension in the San Joaquin and Sacramento Counties of California. From 1998 to 2002, following the completion of her Ph.D. degree, Van Eenennaam worked for Calgene (purchased by Monsanto Corporation in 1997) in Davis, California , first as a research ...

The main focus of NIAB is to nurture the bio-entrepreneurship in the animal biotechnology field and to perform translational research involving livestock which would be beneficial to mankind. There will be research laboratories of various disciplines e.g. Genomics , Nutrition enrichment, transgenic technology, infectious diseases and ...
Animal breeding is a branch of animal science that addresses the evaluation (using best linear unbiased prediction and other methods) of the genetic value (estimated breeding value, EBV) of livestock. Selecting for breeding animals with superior EBV in growth rate, egg, meat, milk, or wool production, or with other desirable traits has ...
He was responsible for the development of a whole genome cattle-hamster radiation hybrid (RH) panel. This work fueled a new thrust in cattle genomics and comparative gene mapping. RH mapping is an effective tool for building ordered maps of conserved sequences, derived from genes, thus integrating linkage and physical maps of mammalian chromosomes.
