They have unique attributes for studies in cancer, infectious diseases, genetics, virology and reproduction. However, it is only now that their reproductive physiology is being clarified in any depth and this book is a first synthesis of that knowledge. The nine authors involved in this project have presented an up to date account of the major New World species used in biological and medical science. In addition to their distribution and conservation in the wild, essential biological data from laboratory studies are presented on reproductive cycles, gestation length, seasonal breeding, puberty and other factors. The major applications of these species in research are explored. Whenever possible, research workers should steer away from using endangered species in their studies. The New World monkeys used in research in any numbers are still fairly common ~n the wild, yet their greatest advantages are ~n their smalle size and high fecundity. This makes possible the establishment of self sustaining captive breeding colonies at a fraction of the t | | 出版日期 | Book 1983 | | 关键词 | reproduction | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-7322-0 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-009-7324-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-7322-0 | | copyright | MTP Press Limited 1983 |
