This book describes the biological basis of reproduction in poultry
and places this information in the context of poultry production.
The author has collated and integrated recent information from a
variety of sources in order to highlight the principles of the
reproductive biology of poultry. This is achieved through a
well-illustrated and tabulated text which emphasizes integration
rather than comprehensive literature citations. The book begins by
considering the egg, proceeds to a brief description of embryonic
and chick development as they relate to poultry production, and
describes the physiological processes that lead to formation of the
fertile egg. It concludes with a discussion of the relationship
between measurements of reproductive success that are commonly used
in the poultry industry and their ability to reflect the
physiological processes that contribute to successful reproduction.
The book is aimed at advanced undergraduates or graduate students
studying animal reproduction or agriculture, as well as scientists
working in the poultry industry.
