"When considering the physiological systems of the body, the degree of species variation within the reproductive system compared to other systems is remarkable. Furthermore, it is essential that researchers, educators, and students alike remain aware of the fundamental comparative differences in the reproductive biology of domestic species."
Comparative Reproductive Biology is a comprehensive reference on the reproductive systems of domestic species. This book examines all aspects of reproduction, from the molecular structure to the overall physiology and medical issues.
The topic of gender is of great interest, as food production will be enhanced by the ability to control gender in food animal species. Food animal producers will benefit greatly from an abundance of female animals, and artificial insemination and embryo transfer are almost the norm today.
Birds are not included in this book, so the fact that female birds are the ones with the Barr bodies is also not included in this text.
The chapter on artificial insemination is extensive, ranging from cattle to cats. Likewise, the chapter on embryo transfer and in vitro fertilization is extensive. The chapter on cloning was especially interesting to me, and includes embryo splitting, blastomere dispersal, and nuclear transfer. Several important issues are touched upon as food for thought: repopulation of extinct or endangered species, gene alteration, and targeting specific genes.
The work in this field will be closely followed by human medicine researchers.
There are 12 pages of color illustrations bundled together for economy. Also included are comprehensive references of the reproductive systems of domestic species.

When considering the physiological systems of the body, the degree of species variation within the reproductive system compared to other systems is remarkable. Furthermore, it is essential that researchers, educators, and students alike remain aware of the fundamental comparative differences in the reproductive biology of domestic species.
Written by renowned scientists in their respective fields, Comparative Reproductive Biology is a comprehensive reference on the reproductive systems of domestic species.
The book offers both broad and specific knowledge in areas that have advanced the field in recent years, including advances in cell and molecular biology applied to reproduction, transgenic animal production, gender selection, artificial insemination, embryo transfer, cryobiology, animal cloning and many others.
This seminal text includes topics in animal reproduction that are usually only found as part of other books in animal science such as anatomy, histology, physiology, radiology, ultrasonogrophy, and others.
