The Hendrix Genetics Research & Technology
Centre (RTC) is recognised worldwide as one of
the leading research centers of animal genetics.It supports the breeding divisions of Hendrix Genetics, with work on projects to improve the basis for selection programs by the prediction
of genetic value of breeding candidates. Pedigree and performance data of millions of animals are
stored centrally with RTC software engineers ensuring the
newest features and functionalities in database and data entry technology. The RTC Biobank stores blood and tissue samples
of all breeding stock for meaningful analysis of the DNA information using molecular genetics. In addition to in-house research numerous other research projects
are successfully executed in close collaboration with international renowned institutions and well-known companies. All in all, the RTC capitalizes on the synergies of a multi-species breeding company by ensuring the best combination of science
and practice. |
