Add to basketNeuware - Livestock Genome Editing Tools introduces applications and improvements to a series of new genome editing techniques in livestock, such as pigs, cattle, and sheep. These tools include zinc finger nucleases (ZFN), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALEN), and the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR/Cas9) system, as well as the traditional gene targeting tools. The book also summarizes a series of genome editing-related techniques, including microinjection and somatic cell nuclear transfer.Written by international experts who have been working on livestock genetic editing field for more than 30 years, this book provides extensively theoretical and practical experience for readers to master the latest developments. This book explores the importance of research and application, as well as operation procedures, of livestock genetic editing tools. The writing of operation details makes this book an accessible read.This book is an important resource for researchers interested in genome-edited animals and scientists and technicians in breeding institutions and is also of interest to students major in animal reproduction and biological engineering.

Dr. Kui Li is a Professor at Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. He graduated from Wuhan University of China and appointed as a full Professor at Huazhong (Central China) Agricultural University and Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences in China since 1996, respectively. He used to be a visiting scholar at the University of Sydney, Australia and a full-time visiting Professor at the Cornell University, USA. Prof. Li’s research interests include pig genome and breeding, pig genetic engineering, experimental mini-pigs and medical models. He has been working on these fields for more than 3 decades. Since 1996, Prof. Li systematically compared the multi-omics of different developmental stages of Chinese and Western pig breeds and found lots of multi-level molecular markers. He also identified several hundreds of molecular markers related to porcine economic traits which are used to develop pig breeds. He established steady platforms for porcine somatic cell nuclear transfer, pronuclear injection, and genome editing techniques. He also established the techniques to develop genetic modified pigs with multi-gene compound traits, controllable expression and friendly gene locus site directed integration. Excitingly, Prof. Li’s research group generated more than 20 new breeding materials for agriculture including MSTN-edited pigs, anti-porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome pigs. His research group also generated genome edited pigs for biomedicine including cardiovascular disease and diabetes models, which showed great application perspective. Prof Li is a founder of Agsino Gensources Co., Ltd., an animal biotechnology breeding company.
Dr. Bingyuan Wang is an Associate Professor at the Institute of Animal Sciences, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. In 2014, she graduated from Max Planck Institute for Molecular Biomedicine in Germany. From 2015 to 2023, she worked in the Porcine Gene Engineering and Plasma Innovation group, which is led by Prof. Kui Li. Her research interests include the molecular mechanisms underlying porcine spermatogonial cells proliferation and apoptosis, the influence of exogenous factors in the porcine reproduction using porcine oocytes and spermatogonial cells, induction of gametes from porcine spermatogonial cells, and the generation of genome-edited pigs using porcine spermatogonial cells.

General Terms and Conditions and Customer Information / Privacy Policy
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us as a provider (AHA-BUCH GmbH) via the Internet platforms AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any of your own terms and conditions used by you will be objected to
(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following regulations is any natural person who concludes...
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
