João Barbosa da Silva Neto studies the genetics and breeding of beef cattle, particularly Nellore and other tropical breeds, focusing on traits like feed efficiency, growth, carcass quality, reproduction, and heat tolerance. His work uses genomic data and statistical models to understand how genes interact with environment and to help identify animals with better production and resilience traits. This research supports the development of more efficient and adaptable cattle breeding programs, especially in tropical settings.
Publication output was minimal or absent for most of the past decade but has increased notably since 2022, with the highest activity in 2025.
