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.

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.

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

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
