Biotechnologies Applied to Animal Reproduction: Current Trends and Practical Applications for Reproductive Management

Editat de Juan Carlos Gardón, Katy Satué
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 noi 2020
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.

Veterinary and Experimental Sciences of the Catholic University of Valencia San Vicente Mártir (UCV),
Valencia, Spain, where he is also the Director of the UCV Veterinary Farm. He also participates in
academic postgraduate activities at the Veterinary Faculty of Murcia University, Spain. He has over 30
years of teaching and research experience. He is the author of eight book chapters and has published
over 200 research papers in national and international journals and conference proceedings. His main
research interests include animal physiology, physiology and biotechnology of reproduction either in
males or females, the study of gametes under in vitro conditions, and the use of ultrasound as a
complement to physiological studies and development of applied biotechnologies.
Katy Satué, PhD, is a professor in the Department of Animal Medicine and Surgery at the Faculty of
Veterinary Medicine of the CEU-Cardinal Herrera University, Valencia, Spain. She teaches courses in
general pathology, integrated in the module of applied bases of the equine veterinary clinic for the 2nd,
3rd and 4th years of the degree program in veterinary sciences. Her research activity is focused in the
field of hematology, biochemistry, immunology, and fundamentally in equine endocrinology in pregnant
Spanish purebreed mares. Dr. Satué has participated in 10 research projects and has written two books
and 14 book chapters published by international publishing houses related to her research areas. She
has written many scientific publications in international journals and has attended many international
congresses. Since 2014, she has been responsible for the Clinical Analysis Laboratory of the Veterinary
Clinical Hospital of CEU Cardinal Herrera University.

Recenzii

“The book is designed to provide the reader with the most recent information on the practical application of a series of advanced reproductive technologies in the major farm animal species, such as cattle, pigs, and horses, with emphasis on female and male cattle. The readership will appreciate the detailed description of the technologies, their critical appraisal, the extensive reference lists and the rich illustration of the book.”
From the Foreword by Prof. Dr. Heiner Niemann, Hannover Medical University, Germany
[REVIEWER'S EXPERT OPINION]Chemyong J Ko, PhD(University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)**Description**This book introduces the fundamental basics of reproductive technologies
currently employed in bovine, equine, and porcine species.**Purpose**The purpose is to provide current knowledge about the reproductive technologies
that are being employed for maximizing reproductive outcomes.**Audience**The audience includes both students majoring in animal science or veterinary
medicine as well as practitioners. This book will serve well the learning needs
of students and as an introduction of new technologies to practitioners and
farmers. The authors are authorities in managing reproduction of production animals.**Features**After providing a historical view of each technology, the book then compares
them, detailing the pros and cons of each one with supporting scientific data
from published studies, so that readers can choose the appropriate one for
their applications.**Assessment**This is an excellent book from experts in the field of animal reproductive biology.-Weighted Numerical Score: 91 - 4 Stars!
