This 2nd book provides fundamental concepts and recent applications of biotechnological methods, such as genetic selection, breeding methods and genetic engineering tools. Biotechnology has remarkably improved the productivity of livestock by increasing the reproduction efficiency and decreasing the generation time. The chapters detail the mechanisms of methods for animal reproduction and breeding methods. This book focus on the impact of minerals, steroids metabolic stress, nutritional stress and anti-nutritional factors on the livestock reproduction.

The book aim to contribute the latest understandings of physiological, biochemical and molecular bases of the responses of major crop plants to a range of different biomass produced biochar to introduce climate resilience crop varieties which leads to enhanced crop productivity and quality under stressful conditions and also for better utilization of natural resources to ensure food security through modern breeding. Finally, this book will be a valuable resource for future plant stress related research with biochar, and can be considered as a reference book for front-line researchers...

This book presents advanced reviews on latest developments and future trends of animal biotechnology with focus on computational and experimental approaches. The articles in this book discusses the implications of recent methods in animal biotechnology to improve the livestock production. Applications of omics technologies and system biology approaches for livestock production and animal disorders were discussed in detail. 

The evolution of transgenic technology, genome editing and markers for early pregnancy detection were elucidated in this book. A couple of chapters were...
