Animals are multicellular eukaryotic organisms. They are part of the biological kingdom Animalia. The study of genes and the processes of reproduction are vital to the understanding of animal diversity and characteristics. In animals, the DNA is arranged in multiple linear chromosomes, which can be very long. Most animals are diploid, which means they have two homologous copies of each chromosome, one from the mother and one from the father. This also means that they possess two copies of every gene. The two alleles specific to a particular gene are present on identical loci of the two chromosomes. In many animals including humans, the genes that are responsible for the inheritance of the male and female characteristics are the Y and X chromosomes respectively. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the fields of animal genetics and genomics. The topics included in this book are of the utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
