Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled “Current Method and Perspective in Animal Reproduction”, highlights recent advances and emerging trends in the field of animal reproductive science. As reproductive efficiency remains a cornerstone of livestock production, conservation biology, and veterinary medicine, innovative technologies and updated strategies are crucial for improving fertility, understanding reproductive physiology, and addressing reproductive disorders across species. This Special Issue features original research and review articles covering diverse topics, including assisted reproductive technologies (ART), gamete biology, cryopreservation, hormonal regulation, reproductive genetics, and fertility biomarkers. Contributions also explore novel insights into reproductive biotechnology, artificial insemination, embryo transfer, and species-specific reproductive challenges. By presenting a comprehensive overview of current methodologies and forward-looking perspectives, this Special Issue aims to support researchers, veterinarians, and breeders in optimizing reproductive outcomes and promoting sustainable animal production and conservation.
