Summary

Reproductive Genomics in Domestic Animals is a thorough examination of genomics in the livestock industry, encompassing genome sciences, genome biotechnology, and reproduction. Recent developments in molecular genetics and genomics have enabled scientists to identify and characterize genes contributing to the complexity of reproduction in domestic animals, allowing scientists to improve reproductive traits. Providing the livestock industry with essential tools for enhancing reproductive efficiency, Reproductive Genomics in Domestic Animals surveys the current status of reproductive genomes and looks to the future direction of research.


Divided into three parts, the book begins by focusing on genome resources, including tools, reagents, databases, and quantitative genomics approaches. The second part targets transcriptomes and physiological genomics, and the third offers information on the genomics of reproductive biotechnology and their application. Reproductive Genomics in Domestic Animals is an invaluable resource for animal science researchers, students, and professionals.
