520 3 _aThis book contains 24 chapters covering various fields of genetics and biology of cattle. It serves as a reference book on cattle genetics for researchers, lecturers, students, farmers and specialists working in the industry. The first five chapters focus on systematics, phylogeny, domestication, breeds and factorial genetics of cattle. The next two chapters provide crucial information about the structure of bovine chromosomes and the genome, as well as gene mapping in cattle. The foundations of immune response and disease resistance are covered in chapters 8-10. Chapters 11-14 discuss the genetics of behaviour, reproduction and development. Moreover, chapters 15-23 are devoted to genetics applied to cattle improvement. The standard genetic nomenclature for cattle is presented in the final chapter.
