Sustainable Improvement of Animal Production and Health.
The growing world population is vulnerable to limitations in the production of agricultural products and any change, be it climatic realities and/or variations or civil strife upset the delicate balance of providing affordable food for all. It is alarming that the world's poorest people, some one billion living mostly in Africa and Asia, depend on livestock for their day-to-day livelihood.

Managing the Prenatal Environment to Enhance Livestock Productivity
Prenatal life is the period of maximal development in animals, and it is well recognised that factors that alter development can have profound effects on the embryonic, foetal and postnatal animal. Scientists involved in research on livestock productivity have for decades studied postnatal consequences of foetal development on productivity. Recently, however, there has been a surge in interest in how to manage prenatal development to enhance livestock health and productivity.

Early, Rapid and Sensitive Veterinary Molecular Diagnostics – Real Time PCR Applications
This book gives a comprehensive account of the practical aspects of real-time PCR and its application to veterinary diagnostic laboratories. The optimisation of assays to help diagnose livestock diseases is stressed and exemplified through assembling standard operating procedures from many laboratory sources. Theoretical aspects of PCR are dealt with as well as quality control features necessary to maintain an assured testing system.
