Description
Anderson James Semen Of Animals And Its Use For Artificial Insemination (Pb) by Anderson James
Artificial insemination is used instead of natural mating for reproduction purposes and its possibilities as a method to aid the development and improvement of livestock production, especially of dairy cattle, and in disease control. This book comprises of three parts and ten chapters. Part I is directed particularly to the need of the scientific worker for a detailed review of the literature dealing with the study of semen, the factors, which affects its production, and the properties and reactions which effect its use for insemination. Part II embraces a discussion of the use of artificial insemination in different species of its application in different countries and circumstances and of its limitations imposed on its use by various factors, including those arising from the physiological processes of female reproduction. Part III describes the actual techniques of semen collection, examination and handling, and of insemination; it is thus the section of most direct interest to those concerned with the practical application of the method. This valuable book will be used worldwide as textbook and authoritative reference book for students, teachers, researchers of veterinary and animal science, extension workers, artificial insemination practitioners and those who are involved in artificial insemination.
