The Genetics of the Pig (CABI Publishing)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The theory and applications of mammalian genetics have evolved rapidly over the last two decades to include immunogenetics and molecular genetics, creating fresh insights into biological processes. These developments, together with improved management practices, have revolutionized pig
production. This book is a comprehensive reference on pig genetics and its integration with livestock management and production technology. It covers all relevant topics, from phylogeny, morphological traits, diseases and behavior to transgenics, performance traits, genetic conservation and genome
mapping. It includes linkage maps and the latest list of identified loci. The chapters have been specially commissioned from experts in Europe, North America and Australia, and the volume will prove invaluable to advanced students and researchers in animal genetics and breeding, livestock producers,
and veterinarians.
