In this project, we will develop a new technology we call Precision Breeding, which is based on the collection and utilization of very large quantities of sequence data, and will enable us to dramatically accelerate the rate of genetic improvement in our broiler populations. This new technology will help us deliver real improvements to broiler industry productivity and sustainability in the UK and around the world. The project involves collaboration between two world class UK partners, Aviagen Ltd, the world's leading broiler breeding company and The Roslin Institute (RI), the world's leading research centre in the application of genomics and quantitative genetics to farm animal breeding. The project requires whole genome sequencing of samples on an unprecedented scale and even though our innovative approach dramatically reduces the costs over the conventional paradigm, the risk and costs are still considerable. Sharing the costs with Innovate UK would enable us to undertake this project.

在这个项目中，我们将开发一种我们称之为精确育种的新技术，它基于大量序列数据的收集和利用，将使我们能够大大加快肉鸡种群的遗传改良速度。这项新技术将帮助我们真正提高英国和世界各地肉鸡行业的生产力和可持续性。该项目涉及两个世界级的英国合作伙伴之间的合作，世界领先的肉鸡育种公司Aviagen Ltd和罗斯林研究所（RI），世界领先的基因组学和数量遗传学应用于农场动物育种的研究中心。该项目需要以前所未有的规模对样本进行全基因组测序，尽管我们的创新方法大大降低了传统范例的成本，但风险和成本仍然相当大。与Innovate UK分担成本将使我们能够承担这个项目。
