What is Genetic Visions

Email Page
Genetic Visions Inc. tests DNA from cattle to identify genes influencing production traits hair color and animal health and viability. Alterations in the composition of DNA provide "genetic markers".
A genetic marker associated with a trait of interest can be used in cattle breeding programs as a selection tool.
Genetic Visions Inc. was formed in 1988 as the research arm of TriÂState Breeders known today as Accelerated Genetics. This subsidiary corporation wholly owned by Accelerated Genetics is located in Middleton Wisconsin.
Concentrated research efforts began in 1986 with Dr. C. Michael Cowan General Manager of Genetic Visions Inc. working in conjunction with researchers at the University of Wisconsin Madison.
One of the results of this collaboration was the identification of a genetic marker that was linked to milk yield in an elite dairy sire family. The findings are the bases for US Patent No. 5041371 and the Chro-Mo-Probe test exclusively offered by Genetic Visions Inc. Discovery of this selection tool made it possible to more accurately evaluate and screen the genetic potential of young offspring in this sire family.
