Bibliography. The book Atlas Animal Genetic Resources of India is an original work through a collective efforts of the authors who themselves carried out the phenotypic and genetic characterization of breeds of different livestock and poultry species. The book is based on review of published and unpublished information on different breeds compilation of own data collected by the authors through field based studies. The book describes a total of 174 breeds and populations including all the extant and newly described ones. The book also describes the details of each of the livestock and poultry species including their history of origin and domestication geographical and demographic distribution ecology and environment genetic diversity livestock production system and socio economic importance under Indian Aariculture. These concepts have been supported by quality photographs. Within each species all the extant breeds and newer breeds and populations known till date have been described for their origin and distribution synonymous names geographical location population distribution herd and flock structures phenotypic and morphometric descriptions. The growth and body weights production and reproduction parameters have been described. The present trends in population growth and present status of the breeds based on population estimates and percentage of females being bred pure has been given for each breed and populations. The photographs from left side of the animals of both and female sexes have been given. Majority of the photographs were authors own collection and others have been taken from the Photographic Unit of National Bureau of Animal Genetic Resources. The book contains 274 pages of comprehensive text on different species and breeds. There are 213 references quoted for the literature referred for the compilation of the Atlas. All the authors have equal contribution beginning from the conceptualization compilation and editing of the manuscript. 274 pp.
