Die Tiergenetik ist ein zentrales Thema in Wissenschaftsprogrammen für höhere Semester. Animal Genetics füllt eine Lücke im bestehenden Literaturkanon: genetische Prinzipien und deren Anwendung bei Nutz- und Haustieren werden vorgestellt. Ausführlich behandelt werden u.a. die Populations- und quantitative Genetik, die Epigenetik, Biotechnologie und Zucht. Als Lehrwerk für höhere Semester ist Animal Genetics unersetzlich.
