This publication is originated from a meeting of the Sub-Network on Genetic Resources of the FAO-CIHEAM Inter-Regional Cooperative Research and Development Network on Sheep and Goats, held in Sassari, Italy, on 9-11 May 2002. The main objective of the meeting was to present the scientific, organizational and economic aspects to be taken into account by the breeding programmes for improving the quality of products. Topics such as QTL detection, selection for scrapie resistance, selection for nematode resistance, selection for udder health and udder traits, selection for milk and meat quality, breed change and alternatives to the use of hormones in sheep and goat breeding programmes were presented and discussed. All these papers gave an overview of the present situation in breeding for disease resistance in sheep and goats and in the scientific and technical possibilities to undertake breeding programmes on milk and meat quality products.
