Protecting biodiversity is a major challenge today, and local animal breeds are a key part of it. These unique breeds contribute to each region's natural heritage and ecological diversity. Cryopreservation-a process where we store stem cells and sperm in gene banks-helps safeguard the genetic material of these animals for future generations. This book focuses on the cryopreservation of avian (bird) stem cells and sperm, detailing the methods used to isolate, cultivate, and study these cells. It also explores their applications in medicine, veterinary science, and biotechnology, showing how these preserved genetic resources can benefit both research and conservation efforts. By securing the genetic diversity of avian species, this work supports broader efforts to protect biodiversity and maintain the richness of animal life on our planet.
