Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The formation of the sperm and egg, the union of these at fertilization, and the development of the new organism through pregnancy are amongst the most fascinating processes in biology. To further understand the molecular mechanisms regulating the developmental and reproductive processes in mammals is essential to improve reproductive management strategies and treatments for disruptions in reproductive function. A variety of candidate genes, and regulatory networks identified by genomics technologies have provided us the opportunity to unlock this biological conundrum.
In this Special Issue, we are inviting submissions of original research articles, review articles, and communications related to various aspects of Gene Regulation of Development and Reproduction in Mammals.
Prof. Dr. Chunjin Li

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Genes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
