The Characterization of Genus Ovis: Genetics, Domestication and Behavior delves into the diverse world of wild and domesticated sheep. This book offers extensive information on the genetics, evolution, diversity, behavior, expansion, breeding, and domestication of sheep. It is a comprehensive characterization of this ecologically and commercially significant genus. Written by four-time hosts of the World Sheep Conference, this book is systematically structured into four sections to guide readers through the various Ovis species, their biological characteristics, genetic markers, and significance to human populations. It offers readers new insights into the functional genetics of sheep species, their migrations and expansions in connection with human history, and guidance on successful breeding and husbandry. The Characterization of Genus Ovis: Genetics, Domestication and Behavior is organized for accessibility to student, academic, and professional audiences. It is an indispensable resource for readers interested in animal evolution, diversity, behavior, and husbandry.

American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine

Laboratory Animal Medicine, Fourth Edition - A volume in the American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM) blue books series - is the most authoritative reference on Laboratory Animals biology, health, and care. Edited by recognized experts in laboratory animal science, endorsed as the official material for certification by ACLAM, this reference defines the standard for all aspects of humane animal use and scientific investigations. This new edition implements significant changes in the area. The Animal Welfare chapter moved to the beginning of the book, highlighting this subject’s importance, and was expanded to include Euthanasia, previously covered on the anesthesia chapter. Further updates include the addition of hamsters &amp; gerbils to the Guinea Pig chapter, the woodchuck and chinchillas are now included in the other rodents’ chapter, instead of a dedicated chapter. The non-human primates’ chapter was separated into two chapters: New and Old-World primates. The zebra finch and quail chapters were combined and now also include pigeons. The chapter on genetically modified animals was expanded to include additional CRISPR manipulation and genetic monitoring in key model species. The Microbiome Research chapter was added to account for this key factor and its importance in research. A chapter on transplant medicine was added and also covers xenozoonoses. The species-specific chapters are written at a level suitable for veterinarians and research scientists. Management chapters are suitable for program directors and facility managers both in academic and corporate settings. This edition continues the tradition of Laboratory Animal Medicine in setting the standards for the Laboratory Animal Science community, expanding, and updating the coverage following current and future practice in the area.

Machines of the Farm: Theory and Practice is a detailed and in-depth textbook that provides a thorough understanding of farm machines, their mechanics and management. This book deep dives into practical concepts pertaining to agricultural equipment, their calibration and adjustments which are essential for an agricultural engineer in the field. Alongside descriptions of specific machines, the scientific principles governing the operation of these machines are also elaborated on in length. This book blends theoretical insights and practical applications, and includes chapters on mechanics, materials, selection, and performance evaluation to ensure a broad understanding of the subject. The initial chapters offer a brief overview of farm machinery, its need, and current standing within the context of modern agriculture. It details the key objectives of farm mechanization and delves into primary tillage equipment and ploughs in depth. Following this, the subsequent chapters address secondary tillage equipment, machinery for sowing the crop, weed control, crop protection, manure application and crop harvesting. Each chapter contains worked examples which give the agricultural practitioner the theory as well as the context within which to apply the concepts being relayed. The concluding chapters review the testing of farm machines and earth moving equipment, while also considering performance against cost. Machines of the Farm is a useful resource for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in the field of Agricultural Engineering who are enrolled in courses on Farm Machines. Additionally agricultural engineers in the field, farm machinery designers, and agricultural consultants who want to deepen their understanding of agricultural equipment would also benefit from Machines of the Farm. To further learning objectives this textbook contains a full solutions manual for qualified instructors and worked examples and exercise questions for students.

This fully updated edition of "Changing the Food Game" shows how our unsustainable food production system cannot support our population growth and argues it can only be solved by effective market transformation to achieve sustainable agriculture and food production. It presents a game-changing solution to revolutionise the industry.

Rice Cultivation under Abiotic Stresses: Challenges and Opportunities provides a unique look at three key factors in optimized rice yield - cultivation practices, understanding abiotic stress response, and mitigation strategies - enabling the reader to better understand the cause, effect, and means of protecting rice crop yield. It is a uniquely comprehensive resource for advancing the sustainable and optimal production of rice that will be a valuable resource for researchers and advanced students in Agriculture, Agronomy, Botany, Plant Physiology, and Environmental Science. Rice is the primary source of energy for over half of the world’s people. It can play a vital role against mal and under nutrition, but as climate and other abiotic challenges continue to impact yield, steps need to be taken to ensure production.

Nanomaterial-Plant Interactions

Nanomaterials in the Plant-Soil Continuum explores the various nanomaterials that are impacting agriculture whether through intentional or unintentional pathways. Providing a concise outlook of NMs in soil chemistry, physics, and biology, it highlights nanomaterial transformation in soil and subsequent plant uptake. Plants may be exposed to naturally generated or artificially produced nanomaterials (ENMs). They can absorb NMs from the soil through roots or leaves but return them to the soil through litter, creating an intricate network of NMs cycling in a soil-plant continuum. Understanding this NM transformation in soil and subsequent plant uptake is integral to understanding, and protecting, an ecosystem. Nanomaterials in the Plant-Soil Continuum also discusses the translocation and biotransformation of NMs in plants and their effects on plant metabolism. Considering NMs as new and emerging agrochemicals, a detailed understanding of their role in the soil-plant continuum, ecosystem functioning, and services will also be discussed. This volume in the "Nanomaterial Plant Interactions" series highlights the recent insights into the impact, fate, and transport of NMs in the soil-plant continuum and their potential impacts on soil and plant health.

Nanomaterials in the Soil-Plant Continuum

Though global food demand is ever-increasing, agricultural productivity is declining, largely due to the shrinking of resources like cultivable land. Under such circumstances, the role of the livestock sector to fulfill growing food demand is particularly important for food and nutritional security. Genetic and Reproductive Approaches for Sustainable Livestock Production details the roles of both established and emerging reproductive and genomic technologies in creating more sustainable livestock production. This book outlines a variety of integrated strategies, covering traditional and modern omics approaches (structural, functional, comparative and epigenomics) and genomics-assisted breeding methods. These can be adopted and utilized to dissect and decode the gene regulatory networks involved in the quantitative yield and stress tolerance traits in livestock. Genetic and Reproductive Approaches for Sustainable Livestock Production is a particularly attractive resource for scientists, researchers, educators and professionals in livestock science, veterinary medicine, and food security. The work will allow professional readers to incorporate existing research into their practices and will prompt academics to build on existing research and make new discoveries.
