{"product_id":"cattle-breeds-of-the-world-marleen-felius-9789004449015","title":"Cattle Breeds of the World","description":"The origin and evolution of cattle breeds was long explained only by historical sources, with questionable reliability. In recent years genetic and molecular data have become available that shed new light on this, revealing how, from neolithic times, breeds emerged by migratory movements and mutual influencing of gene pools. But while molecular breed characterization is now rapidly advancing, phenotypic characterization remains under-explored.\u003cbr\u003e This publication presents a classification of around 1,000 cattle breeds based on geographical and historical data and morphology. Males and females of every breed are portrayed by the author in water colour and to scale. The illustrations are positioned next to each breed's description, completing the overall image.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marleen Felius\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004449019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004449015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Marleen Felius","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46401670709503,"sku":"9789004449015","price":288.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2f914593-77d4-4378-b7ec-8200988688d6.jpg?v=1733888306","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cattle-breeds-of-the-world-marleen-felius-9789004449015","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
