This book has been developed from invited presentations at a conference held in California in August 1997 to address genetic engineering as applied to farmed animals. It is written by representatives from laboratories involved in attempts to improve agriculturally important mammals, poultry and fish. Current knowledge, methodology, technical improvements and successes in the applications of transgenic technology to a range of animals which are important in agriculture are brought together under one cover.
