| CAB Abstracts--OvidSP | Compiled by CABI Publishing, CAB Abstracts provides comprehensive international coverage of the significant research and development literature in agriculture, forestry, aspects of human health, human nutrition, animal health and the management and conservation of natural resources. Sources scanned selectively for records are: professional and trade journals (over 9,000), reports, bulletins, conference proceedings, symposia, workshops, scientific texts, technical and popular books, theses, annual reports and a few categories of patents and standards. Major subject areas covered include: agricultural and environmental economics; agricultural engineering; animal production (including general and theoretical genetics, genetic engineering and immunogenetics); biodeterioration, bioremediation and biodegradation (including any organisms involved and their identification through molecular biology techniques); biotechnology in the areas of bioethics, intellectual property issues, genes and their expression, molecular biology techniques, genomics, genetic engineering, cloning, in vitro fertilization and gene therapy; broad coverage of crop protection (including pests, pathogens, natural enemies and control mechanisms for an extensive range of plants); dairy science and technology encompassing physiological, biochemical, immunological, microbiological, chemical and physics aspects; forestry, forest products and agroforestry; human nutrition with coverage extending into physiology, biochemistry and disorders; leisure, recreation, and tourism; all aspects of medical and veterinary parasitological disease which includes diagnosis, immunobiology, physiology, molecular and cell biology; developmental biology and genetics (molecular, population and biochemical); natural resources and environmental issues; plant breeding, crop production and horticulture; soil science, land/water management and fertilizer technology; rural development; veterinary medicine; and miscellaneous subjects (human and animal health, nematology, sugar technology and apiculture). Online coverage extends back to 1973. Print coverage for various subjects is available for earlier years. | 1973 - present | No |
