Full Description

The Characterization of Genus Ovis: Genetics, Domestication and Behavior delves into the diverse world of wild and domesticated sheep. This book offers comprehensive information on the genetics, evolution, diversity, behavior, expansion, breeding, and domestication of sheep. It is a detailed characterization of this ecologically and commercially significant genus. Written by experts who have hosted the World Sheep Conference four times, the book is systematically structured into four sections to guide readers through the various Ovis species, their biological characteristics, genetic markers, and their significance to human populations.

Furthermore, it offers new insights into the functional genetics of sheep species, their migrations and expansions in connection with human history, and guidance on successful breeding and husbandry. The book is organized for accessibility to student, academic, and professional audiences, making it an indispensable resource for anyone interested in animal evolution, diversity, behavior, and husbandry.
