"An understanding of the processes that change the shape and composition of farm animals is fundamental to all aspects of production. The book provides a comprehensive picture of how animals grow, change in shape and in composition, and of the factors which affect growth process…
"Caroline Lorbach takes the reader step-by-step through the process of deciding to use donor conception, choosing a donor, and discussing the decision with others and considers the perspective of the donor alongside those of parents and offspring. Tackling difficult subjects suc…
Annotation "Drawing on the experiences of parents, offspring and donors and including her own and her family's story, this thought-provoking and informative book explores the process of donor conception. From finding out about an infertility problem, to considering whether - and…
Fibroids and reproduction
Fibroids and reproduction
The most common abnormal growth of the female reproductive system, fibroids, are thought to affect the majority of women at some point during their reproductive years. This text from leading fibroid experts looks at the latest evidence on how the problem impinges on reproduction…

Volume 6 (in two parts) of the series Reproductive Biology and Phylogeny, attempts to document most of the important aspects of the reproductive biology of birds and places them in a setting of phylogenetic relationships. The first part of volume 6 discusses classification and p…
Novel isoforms of α-L-fucosidase are found in both the seminal plasma and membrane system of human sperm. Association of α-L-fucosidase with the human sperm membrane system suggests a role in fertilization. This investigation first refined the subcellular localization of membran…
Scope of study. Nitrogen mineralization of soil organic matter has long been recognized to be very important in meeting plant N needs. Recommendations for N fertilizer requirements for cereals are presently based on the level of nitrate in the top 15 cm of the soil before planti…
Chemotaxis is probably a short-range mechanism because of peristaltic movements of the oviduct, which may prevent the formation of a long-range chemoattractant gradient. Following the observations that, at ovulation, a temperature difference of 1-2°C is established within the ov…
