Book description
Analysis of the equine genome began just over a decade ago,
culminating in the recent complete sequencing of the horse genome. The
availability of the equine whole genome sequence represents the
successful completion of an important era of equine genome
analysis, and the beginning of a new era where the sequence
information will catalyze the development of new tools and resources
that will permit study of a range of traits that are economically
important and are significant to equine health and welfare.
Equine Genomics
provides a timely comprehensive overview of equine genomic research.
Chapters detail key accomplishments and the current state of research,
as well as looking forward to possible applications of genomic
technologies to horse breeding, health, and welfare.
Equine Genomics
delivers a global overview of the topic and is seamlessly edited by a
leading equine genomics researcher.
Equine Genomics
is an indispensible source of information for anyone with an interest
in this increasingly important field of study, including equine genomic
researchers, clinicians, animal science professionals and equine field
veterinarians.
