Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reproduction in small animals is an often-overlooked field of veterinary science. As the activities of scientific groups all over the world are increasing, covering all aspects of reproduction, it is a challenge to provide regular updates and comprehensive reviews. In particular, in the field of biotechnology, knowledge regarding gamete preservation, IVF, embryo transfer, cloning and so on is continuously increasing, and tools such as open access publishing facilitate the exchange and sharing of valuable results. Biotechnology may carry negative associations, such as the belief that it is “unnatural”; however, endangered wild animal species, for example, benefit from the efforts of conservation medicine. This Special Issue presents a collection of state-of-the-art reviews and original research articles, comprising andrological and gynecological themes as well as different aspects of ART and gamete preservation.
