Epigenetics and Udder Quality

from Cattle Chat Hosted by BCI Cattle Chat

On this week’s BCI Cattle Chat episode, the experts answer a listener’s question comparing two genetically identical bulls raised in different environments. The group discusses whether early development and nutrition can influence fertility, longevity, or even the genetics passed on to offspring, diving into the emerging science of epigenetics. Lastly, the team tackles a listener question on udder quality, exploring how heritable udder traits are and when producers should use them as culling criteria in the herd. 3:13 Epigenetics 17:31 Udder Quality For more on BCI Cattle Chat, follow us on X at @ksubci, Facebook, and Instagram at @ksubci.
