Goat Meat Production and Quality
Written by some of the world's leading goat meat scientists, and drawing from the most recent publications in the field, this book comprehensively covers the most important areas of goat meat production. Chapters discuss the role of genetics, breeding, reproduction, and nutrition in producing good quality, profitable goat meat. The mineral, amino acid and fatty acid composition of goat meat is also addressed, along with a discussion of its nutritive value, aimed at highlighting its health benefits over other red meats.
Book of Abstracts of the 67th Annual Meeting of the European Federation of Animal Science
This Book of Abstracts is the main publication of the 67th Annual Meeting of the European Association for Animal Production (EAAP). It contains abstracts of the invited papers and contributed presentations of the sessions of EAAP's nine Commissions: Animal Genetics, Animal Nutrition, Animal Management and Health, Animal Physiology, Cattle Production, Sheep and Goat Production, Pig Production, Horse Production and Livestock Farming Systems.
Biological Clocks
Hardbound. This volume comprises the lectures and a selection of communications presented at the International Congress on Chronobiology, held in Paris, in September, 1997. During the last three decades it has been shown that a number of physiologic functions are regulated by a system of clocks controlling basel levels of activity and responsitivity to changes in the environment. At the beginning of this century (1935) Erwin Bunning was the first to demonstrate that plants and insects still displayed circadian rhythms after they or their parents were raised in constant conditions. Later on, he was the first to demonstrate that circadian clocks measure the length of the day. In the 1950s, Colin Pittendrigh provided strong evidence that circadianphenomena are not learned but they display endogenous properties, the periods of which are independent of environmental factors. Since then, a number of investigations have extensively documented properties
Reproduction in Domestic Animals
A unique feature of this book is the focus on large, domestic animals. Previous editions were considered the "Bible" of reproductive physiology. It covers basic, large animal reproductive physiology, provides species-specific information and is suitable as a textbook for upper-division courses.

Melatonin in the Promotion of Health
Melatonin is a powerful hormone and antioxidant with numerous effects on the metabolism and the health of humans. This volume provides a wide variety of expert reviews on the biology of melatonin relevant to health. Beginning with a history of melatonin and its relation to circadian rhythms, the book examines its use in a host of applications, including gastrointestinal diseases, anesthesia and surgery, bone health, breast cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and age-related macular degeneration and uveitis. It also examines applications related to melanoma, solar skin damage, collagen synthesis, the prevention of DNA damage, mental disorders, sleep, and issues related to jet lag and shift work.
Elements of Reproduction and Reproductive Diseases of Goats
Specialist reference and practical guidebook on goat reproductive health, emphasizing reproductive diseases, their clinical management, and production management Elements of Reproduction and Reproductive Diseases of Goats discusses the reproductive system and various reproductive diseases of goats, with coverage of pathogenesis of diseases, disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment via drugs and other methods, along with general best management of goats. To aid in reader comprehension and practical application, the book includes colored figures, lined figures, and tables visualizing key concepts. The book explains reproductive anatomy of both males and females in a systematic way. The mai...
Nutrition and feeding of the broodmare
"This publication deals with the broodmare, which is the key animal in the Equine chain. In the new competitive context of Equine Industry, the mare should foal a healthy offspring yearly at an optimum cost. The foal should be born and weaned at the accurate months of the year to fit the particular goals of production, i.e. races, sports or leisure horses. The improvement of knowledge of the biology of pregnancy and lactation on the one hand and of the nutrition and the interaction between nutrition and physiology of reproduction on the other hand is of major concern to the equine industry. The book is divided in six parts: - Pregnancy - Lactation - The foal - Feeding practices and pasture m...
