The Department of Animal Science at Oklahoma State University is in
the process of creating an on-line reference site of livestock breed studies
as a companion to our current Breeds of Livestock project. As you can see
from the above listing we have a number of publication of our own that
we are in the process of converting and they should be available in the
next few weeks. We also welcome the contribution of similar publications
from other researchers. If you have a publication of comparative or quantitative
research on any of the livestock breeds which has appeared in a refereed
journal or an experiment station publication that you would like to contribute
to this resource please let us know. We will do the conversion to both
HTML and PDF format on each publication. Obviously we would prefer to have
electronic copies of the publication but we can also do the conversion
from a paper copy. If you are interested in contributing to this project
please use the comment form at the bottom of this page.
