Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reproductive success is a very important objective for those animal species destined for production or sports. For this reason, many interesting works have been carried out over the years to clarify, solve, or explain various aspects of animal reproduction. Depending on this, different biotechnologies have been developed to improve reproductive efficiency or to understand the different physiological processes involved. In addition, reproductive biotechnologies have helped to understand many of the physiological events that occur in the reproduction of both males and females in mammals. Therefore, there are various strategies in different animal species that improve reproductive responses, which should be considered. Biotechnologies such as estrus synchronization, artificial insemination, gamete preservation, in vitro fertilization, ultrasound diagnosis, or hormone determination are alternative tools for the study of the physiology of the reproductive process or for improving the reproductive management of animals.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Animals is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
