Abstract
In recent times, reproductive biotechnologies have emerged and
started to replace the conventional techniques. It is noteworthy
that for sustained livestock productivity, it is imperative to
start using these techniques for facing the increasing
challenges for productivity, reproduction and health with
impending environment conditions. These recent biotechniques,
both in male and female, have revolutionized and opened avenues
for studying and manipulating the reproductive process both
in vitro
and
in vivo
in various livestock species for improving tis efficiency. This
review attempts to highlight pros and cons, on the recent
developments in reproductive biotechnologies, both in male and
female in livestock species.
Keywords:
assisted reproductive technologies, biotechnology, livestock,
reproduction.
