Contents:
Bovine Reproductive Management / José Javier De La Mata and Gabriel A. Bó -- Ultrasonography in Bovine Gynecology / Giovanni Gnemmi, Juan Carlos Gardón, and Cristina Maraboli -- Ultrasonography of the Bovine Reproductive System: Ultrasound Management of the Male Reproductive System / Giovanni Gnemmi, Juan Carlos Gardòn, and Cristina Maraboli -- Postpartum Management in Dairy Cows / Giovanni Gnemmi, Juan Carlos Gardòn, and Cristina Maraboli -- Reproductive Efficiency in Dairy Cows: Change in Trends! / Ana Heras-Molina, José Luis Pesantez Pacheco, and Susana Astiz -- Ovum Pick-Up (OPU) in Cattle: An Update / Salvador Ruiz López -- Clinical Endocrinology of Pregnant Mares / Katy Satué and María Marcilla -- Equine Semen Preservation: Current and Future Trends / Lydia Gil Huerta, Cristina Álvarez, and Victoria Luño Lázaro -- The Journey of the Porcine Spermatozoa from Its Origin to the Fertilization Site: The Road In Vivo vs. In Vitro / Cristina Soriano-Úbeda, Francisco Alberto García-Vázquez, and Carmen Matás -- Reproductive Biotechnologies Applied to Artificial Insemination in Swine / Francisco Alberto García-Vázquez, Chiara Luongo, Gabriela Garrappa, and Ernesto Rodríguez Tobón.
Summary: "This comprehensive volume focuses on recent trends and new technologies used in the management of reproduction in major farm animals, focusing on both males and females of bovine, equine and porcine species. With chapters written by scientists who specialize in their respective topics, the volume presents a selection of different technologies that have been developed to assure reproductive success by improving reproductive efficiency, generating germplasm banks, and maintaining genetic diversity in cattle, horses, and pigs. In the last decade, reproductive technologies in veterinary medicine have progressed considerably, providing high profitability to livestock farms. This book provides basic and applied information on the most used reproductive technologies in bovine, equine, and porcine species for academics, scientists, and veterinarians. The volume discusses reproductive and postpartum management, reproductive ultrasound, sperm management, egg retrieval, artificial insemination, embryo transfer, nutrition, genetics, and certain clinical aspects, such as endocrinology and robustness of reproductive systems. Biotechnologies Applied to Animal Reproduction: Current Trends and Practical Applications for Reproductive Management is the culmination of the efforts of several researchers and scientists from around the world who are well known and respected in their different frontiers of research in reproductive biotechnology."-- Provided by publisher.
