Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following the submission deadline of October 31, 2023 for the Special Issue “Advances in Dairy Cattle Reproduction”, the 40,000 views and more than 80 citations of the 14 contributing articles suggest that it has been well received by both the scientific community and the dairy industry. This interest has motivated us to look closely at which topics can be improved or expanded upon for a second edition the SI. Feelings from clinical meetings indicate the need for continued efforts in many areas to ensure an effective management of the herd, i.e., controlling the complexity of knowledge transfer to operational practises in a herd. In effect, the growing complexity is becoming routine for clinicians. Aspects of management throughout the animal's life, genomic predictions, the utility of in vitro embryo production, and the reproductive clinic should be the profile and purpose for this new edition.
Dr. Fernando Lopez-Gatius
Guest Editor
