| Publisher Description: Interest in genetic conservation and the survival of rare breeds has increased steadily in recent years. Following a successful conference held at Warwick, UK, in 1989 (published as Genetic Conservation of Domestic Livestock), a further conference was held in Budapest, Hungary in August 1991. This book presents selected edited papers from the Budapest conference, reporting new developments and initiatives in this expanding field of research. Contributors came from all over the world, and the book will interest geneticists, animal breeders and others concerned with rare breeds. |
