Description
This option identifies and removes deer that are highly susceptible to CWD as identified via their predictive genetics gebv score. Whole genome predictive genetics (seabury ET. AL. 2020) can identify deer that are highly susceptible to CWD so they can be removed from a herd, reducing or eliminating the introduction of CWD into other herds or spreading to wild deer across the fence line. The proposed project generates all the resources necessary to stimulate stakeholder changes in action, which will directly facilitate a reduction in CWD susceptibility among farmed white-tailed deer, and the potential for delaying the discovery of the first case of CWD detection in indiana farmed WTD.
