YAHYAOUI Mohamed Habib
Professor.
Mohamed Habib Yahyaoui holds PhD in animal sciences from the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB, Spain) and is currently professor in the Arid Lands Institute of Medenine (Tunisia) at the Livestock and wildlife laboratory. His research focuses on applying molecular genetics and genomic approaches to better understand the biological peculiarities of animal resources raised in the arid regions, the dromedary camel and small ruminants. This include genetic characterization of local breeds, diversity of the genes involved in the adaptive immunity ( Major Histocompatibility Complex, MHC) and their association with adaptation and production traits, as well as dairy potential of Tunisian dromedary camel population and ways of its genetic improvement using gene candidate approach (association genotype-phenotype).
