This manual provides a good deal of information on various topics of animal genetics those are useful in assessment of practical part of Gene Inheritance Patterns, Mendelian Inheritance and its Modifications, Gene Interaction, Sex-linked, Sex-influenced and Sex Limited Traits, Crossing Over and Gene Mapping, Karyotyping, Quantitative and Metric Traits of Population Genetics, Estimation of Heritability, Repeatability, Genetic and Phenotypic Correlation, etc. The manual is presented systematically with field examples in a manner that it can be easily understood both by the students and other readers. We hope that this manual could be useful to students, teachers and researchers engaged in the field of animal genetics and breeding
