DESCRIPTION Genetics is a difficult subject to understand and even more difficult to put into practice on the farm. Increasing pressure is put on farmers to improve the performance of their livestock and this established textbook explains the theoretical basis of Mendelism, population genetics, selection and breeding and their applications on the farm. The fourth edition has been completely revised with expanded sections on practical breeding of cattle, sheep and pigs and new information on horses, goats, alpacas and dogs. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction; Traits in domestic animals; Mendelian principles and laws; Principles of population genetics; Ways of changing gene frequencies; Selection for polygenic traits; Aids to selection; Selection for multiple objectives; Breeding systems; Breeding in practical terms; Breeding policies in developing regions; Breeding schemes and future developments; Appendices; Glossary; References; Further reading; Index.

DESCRIPTION An understanding of veterinary genetics is crucial to the evaluation and control of diseases and disorders in animals. Fully revised and updated, this second edition not only contains sections on basic genetics, cytogenetics, immunogentics, population genetics and quantitative genetics, but also covers, in greater depth than the previous edition, molecular biology, biotechnology, gene mapping and the use of molecular tools to research inherited disorders. Accessible and clearly presented, this new edition includes: Basic, step-by-step explanations. Detailed descriptions of how veterinary genetics can be applied to artificial selection in animal production. New information on the control of inherited disorders and the conservation of genetic diversity in both domesticated and wild animal species. Introduction to Veterinary Genetics is still the only introductory genetics textbook for students of veterinary and animal science and will continue to be an indispensable reference tool for veterinary students and practitioners alike.
