1. Current and future assisted reproductive technologies for mammalian farm animals / Peter J. Hansen -- 2. Current and future assisted reproductive technologies for avian species / Ramesh Ramachandran -- Current and future assisted reproductive technologies for fish species / Gregory M. Weber and Cheng-Sheng Lee -- Incorporation of genetic technologies associated with applied reproductive technologies to enhance world food production / Robert A. Cushman, Tara G. McDaneld, Larry A. Kuehn, Warren M. Snelling and Dan Nonneman -- Impacts of reproductive technologies on beef production in the United States / Carl Dahlen, Jamie Larson and G. Cliff Lamb -- Impact of reproductive technologies on dairy food production in the dairy industry / Jeffrey S. Stevenson -- Impact of swine reproductive technologies on pig and global food production / Robert V. Knox -- Impacts of reproductive technologies on beef production in South America / José Luiz Moraes Vasconcelos, Ocilon Gomes de Sá Filho and Reinaldo F. Cooke -- An Australasian perspective on the role of reproductive technologies in world food production / Graeme B. Martin -- A perspective on the impact of reproductive technologies on food production in Africa / Esté van Marle-Köster and Edward C. Webb -- International perspectives on impacts of reproductive technologies to world food production in Asia / / Takeshi Osawa -- International perspectives on impacts of reproductive technologies to world food production in Asia associated with poultry production / Vishwajit S. Chowdhury, Halima Sultana and Mitsuhiro -- Beef Cattle in the Year 2050 / George E. Seidel, Jr.
This book addresses the impacts of current and future reproductive technologies on our world food production and provides a significant contribution to the importance of research in the area of reproductive physiology that has never been compiled before. It would provide a unique opportunity to separate the impacts of how reproductive technologies have affected different species and their contributions to food production. Lastly, no publication has been compiled that demonstrates the relationship between developments in reproductive management tools and food production that may be used a reference for scientists in addressing future research areas. During the past 50 years assisted reproductive technologies have been developed and refined to increase the number and quality of offspring from genetically superior farm animal livestock species. Artificial insemination (AI), estrous synchronization and fixed-time AI, semen and embryo cryopreservation, multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET), in vitro fertilization, sex determination of sperm or embryos, and nuclear transfer are technologies that are used to enhance the production efficiency of livestock species.
