This book details the frontier technologies in the area of bovine reproduction. It describes the importance and significance of different technologies for improving reproduction efficiency in bovines. The book delineates the advancements in the technologies that are currently in use for faster multiplication of elite germ plasm including multiple ovulation and embryo transfer, ovum-pick-up, in vitro fertilization and embryo production, and semen sexing. Other emerging technologies, having potential for improving reproductive efficiency in bovines, including stem cells are also discussed with special reference to spermatogonial stem cells. Simple but effective tools having a great scope for day-to-day application in bovine farms for effective reproductive management like ultrasonography and thermal imaging are also covered in this book. The chapters on sperm transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics provide current developments in these areas and use of integrated approach for identification of fertility biomarkers. The chapters also describe technological advancements for early pregnancy diagnosis and offspring sex pre-selection in bovines. Additionally, this book discusses different sperm selection procedures including application of nanotechnology to obtain superior spermatozoa for assisted reproduction. Futuristic technologies including genomic selection and transgenesis are also discussed in detail. Finally, the book also elucidates a comprehensive description of challenges perceived with bovine reproduction and how effectively these technologies can help in improving fertility in bovines.
Dr. A. Kumaresan is as a Principal scientist at Southern Regional Station of ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute, Bengaluru. His specialization is Veterinary Gynaecology and Obstetrics. He is a post-Doc from Swedish Agricultural University, Uppsala, Sweden. His major area of research has been semen biology, sperm-oviduct interaction and male fertility. He, along with his team, developed integrated livestock production models for hilly areas, area specific mineral mixture for dairy cattle, and indigenous cryopreservation method for boar semen and produced the country’s first litter of piglets through artificial insemination with frozen semen in 2009. His lab developed methods for in vitro culture of bovine spermatogenic and Sertoli cells, identified sperm fertility associated proteins and identified suitable combinations of sperm function tests for fertility prediction in cattle and buffalo bulls. In recognition to his significant contribution in research, Dr. A. Kumaresanhas been awarded by ICAR with prestigious awards like Lal Bahadur Shastri Young Scientist Award (two times; one in 2007 and the other in 2015), Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed Award in 2010 and Hari Om Ashram Trust Award in 2019.
