Latent knowledge in the field of pig reproduction is vast but scattered, making it difficult to take in all information at a glance. Moreover, nascent branches in biotechnology cannot grow if deprived of roots. The book Boar Reproduction: Fundamentals and New Biotechnological Trends links the past, the present and the emerging scientific research fields on reproductive biotechnology, offering a rigorous but easy to follow compilation of topics, from “old favorites” to the latest advances. The book is organized in three parts. The chapters of the first and second part cover various biological aspects of boar spermatozoa within the male, and within the female environments, respectively. The most common laboratory and artificial insemination techniques are discussed in the third part. As an additional feature, some chapters focus on the basis of a technology transfer to bring research expertise from basic science to the market, making the information provided in this book suitable for academic, research and other professional applications.
This book bridges the gap between established knowledge and emerging biotechnological trends in boar reproduction. It addresses the challenge of scattered information in the field by providing a comprehensive compilation of topics, from fundamental biological aspects of boar spermatozoa in both male and female environments to the latest advances in reproductive biotechnology. The work is structured into three parts, covering biological processes and laboratory/artificial insemination techniques, with a focus on technology transfer for practical applications.
The book aims to consolidate vast but disparate knowledge in pig reproduction, serving as a foundational text for emerging biotechnological fields. Its structure, moving from fundamental biological processes to advanced techniques and market application, suggests a comprehensive resource for professionals and researchers. The inclusion of technology transfer principles indicates a practical orientation beyond purely academic study. The compilation is designed to be rigorous yet accessible, facilitating a holistic understanding of reproductive biotechnology in swine.
