摘要: Between 1970 and 2012, vertebrate abundance has declined by 58% with an average annual decline of 2%, calling for serious action to prevent a mass extinction irreversible loss biodiversity. Cryobanks cryopreservation have the potential assist improve ex situ in conservation strategies storing valuable genetic material. A great deal studies concerning been performed within class Mammalia, although no systematic overview previously presented. The objective this study is therefore evaluate status, pattern future Mammalia. strong disproportional distribution examined orders displayed. For majority less than 10% species examined. However, germplasm several cases successful resulted applications assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs). Various obstacles are associated development protocols, among them most prominent interspecific differences cryotolerance. Extrapolation protocols closely related considered applicable procedure, supplement overcome problem examination comparison cryobiological traits. Successful developed vast domesticated mammals, which gives incentive further extrapolation threatened species.
