Animal reproduction biotechnology is an area of fast development with possibilities of practical applications not only in breeding, but in pharmacy and biomedicine as well. Its growth has been achieved thanks to the results of last decades of the previous century in embryology, endocrinology, and molecular biology. The paper contains very brief description of the achievements of NRIAP Department of Animal Reproduction Biotechnology during the last 20 years in mammalian sex regulation, cryobiology of gametes and embryos, in vitro production of embryos, cloning and animal transgenesis.
