| An attempt is
being made to compile the bibliography of camelids of a period of one
decade (1991-2000). It included about 3053 references of Dromedary (68.46%),
New World Camelids (NWC) (26.76%) and Bactrian (4.78%) which were found
predominantly in the Journal of Camel Practice and Research, Selected
Topics on Camelids and other books, journals etc. An overall data of camelid
literature revealed highest literature for diseases (478) followed by
parasitology (399), physiology (381), reproduction (311), anatomy (252)
and surgery (229) (Table 1). Histology constituted 44.44% of anatomy literature
whereas Infectious diseases constituted 66.73% of disease, endocrinology
constituted 6.29% of the physiology, reproductive endocrinology constituted
21.54% of reproduction and anesthesia constituted 17% of the surgery literature.

"Selected
Research on Camelid Physiology and Nutrition"
|
This is a reference book on camelids which includes dromedary, bactrian
and South American Camelids (SAC). The book has 600 pages, 336 figures
and 68 tables. Every chapter has an appended bibliography, hence an update
of Camelid bibliography remains available to the readers of this book.
Dromedary chapters provide unique information on statics and dynamics
of locomotor system, genetics and breeding methods, physiology, ultrasonography,
pharmacology and camel raining and sports, apart from other important
chapters. The bactrian chapters provide information related to reproduction
only whereas SAC chapters give useful information on medical management,
products and concretions. |
