Genetic Conservation of Domestic Livestock: Volume 2 (Genetic Conservation of Domestic Livestock)
Interest in genetic conservation and the survival of rare breeds has increased steadily in recent years.

Contributors came from all over the world, and the book will interest geneticists, animal breeders and others concerned with rare breeds.
