1. Milk modification of cows and goats and improvement of meat quality in cattle, and sheep.
2. Influence of feeding and housing systems on the quality of raw and processed products of animal origin, including the influence of organic cattle breeding system on biological quality of milk, animal welfare and production parameters of herd.
3. Relationship of polymorphism of selected genes and their expression with production parameters and health status of animals.
4. Relationship between oxidation stress indicators in cows and goats and the level of milk production, metabolic profile and the health status of the mammary gland.
5. Routine genetic evaluation data in optimisation of dairy cattle herd management.
6. Improvement of ostrich breeding and management with special reference to genetics, reproduction, meat production and egg laying performance.
7. Influence of feed supplementation on cattle and goat milk and on beef and lamb quality.
8. Combining of population genetics and bioinformatics methods for achieving genetic progress and protection of genetic diversity in populations of farm animals.
