Description
This is a comprehensive text containing extensive literature citations summarizing all available information on causes and possible therapy for reducing embryonic mortaility in domestic farm species. This unique book provides the reader with contemporary thinking on mechanisms involved with the establishment of pregnancy in domestic species. Chapters devoted to the cause of embryonic mortality in swine, cattle, sheep (goats), and horses provide in-depth insight by expert authors. Germinal chapters on fertilization failure, nutritional factors relating to embryonic loss, and immunological aspects of embryonic loss are provided. A final chapter, written by Fuller W. Bazer, offers a view of new frontiers and approaches to the study of embryonic mortality in domestic species.
