Reproductive Technologies and Biobanking for the Conservation of Amphibians, Hardback Book

Reproductive Technologies and Biobanking for the Conservation of Amphibians Hardback

Edited by Aimee Silla, Andy Kouba, Harold Heatwole

Hardback

Description

How to decelerate loss of global biodiversity is one of the greatest challenges of our generation.

Reproductive technologies have enormous potential to assist the recovery ofspecies by enhancing reproductive output, facilitating genetic management, and supporting reintroduction of threatened species.

Of particular value are cryopreservation technologies coupled with the establishment of global gene banks to conserve, in perpetuity, the remaining extant genetic diversity of threatened amphibians. Reproductive Technologies and Biobanking for the Conservation of Amphibians brings together leading experts in the field to provide a comprehensive overview of current bestpractices, summarise technological advancements, and present a framework for facilitating the integration of reproductive technologies and biobanking into conservation breedingprograms for threatened amphibians.

It is an invaluable reference for the next generation of conservation practitioners: captive breeding facilities, researchers, and policy-makersinvolved with biodiversity conservation
