Genomics of Plants and Fungi (Mycology)
Manufacturer: CRC ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items: ASIN: 0824741250 |
Book Description
This volume provides technical insight on how genomics-oriented studies may be used to bring new understanding to established models of fungal development. The book helps to assess and solve problems associated with multiple copies of genes and proteins with seemingly identical functions and depicts various industrial applications. To bridge the information gap resulting from this field's explosive growth, Genomics of Plants and Fungi addresses the implementation of workflow applications with the METEOR Workflow Management System, and discusses clinical manifestations of Aspergillus infection, stunted and medusa genes, hyphal mating and fertilization, and vegetative incompatibility.

Essential Fungal Genetics
David Moore , and LilyAnn Novak Frazer Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0387953671 |
Book Description
Most genetics textbooks deal adequately with plant and animal genetics, but tend to neglect fungi except for two areas. Firstly, the ascus segregations which, in the 1960s, contributed so much to developing an understanding of the mechanism of recombination and secondly, the contribution that work on yeast (as a model eukaryote) is currently making to understanding cell cycle control and its genetic regulation. Consequently, most introductory genetics texts will leave the reader/student with the impression that fungi are of use when peculiarities of their structure or life style suit them to particular experimental approaches, but are not worth mentioning otherwise. The authors have produced a book that will compensate for this imbalance. This book discusses the genetics of fungi in a way that is attractive and challenging, succinct yet comprehensive, sensitive to commercial and applied aspects, yet also theoretical, dealing with their genetics from molecules to individuals to population. This short text will be an ideal supplement to the established basic textbooks in genetics or can be used as the sole text for an advanced course devoted to fungal genetics.

Fungal Populations and Species (Life Science)
John Burnett Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0198515529 |
Book Description
The population genetics and speciation of fungi is a rapidly developing field, heavily dependent upon the use of molecular markers. No basic text exists which describes the methods employed or the findings obtained from such investigations. This book is intended to provide such an account. It describes the methodologies employed and, for the benefit of the non-mycological reader, a brief introduction to basic fungal biology. Recent findings relating to processes in fungal populations - mutation, migration, recombination, heterokaryosis, hybridization, polyploidy, and the operation of selective forces are combined with traditional fungal biology. Finally the taxonomic problems raised by fungal species are discussed, together with the processes of speciation.

APPLIED GENETICS OF HUMANS, ANIMALS, PLANTS AND FUNGI, THE (2ND EDITION)
Bernard C. Lamb Manufacturer: World Scientific Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1860946100 |
Product Description
A concise, clear writing style and a detailed and rich coverage of topics are the reasons that students found the first edition of the book so engaging and useful. Riding on this wave, all chapters within the second edition of this popular book have been thoroughly updated and expanded, especially the human and animal materials. A wider range of animals is covered, including dogs and cats as well as farm animals. The use of cord blood for therapy, pre-implantation genetic diagnosis and animal cloning are also explored and dealt with.

The Applied Genetics of Plants, Animals, Humans & Fungi (Genetics)
B. C. Lamb Manufacturer: World Scientific Publishing Company ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1860941796 |
Book Description
Plant breeding, animal breeding, medical genetics and the genetics of industrial fungi are usually taught separately, but they are all linked by strong central concepts regarding the generation, control, fate and use of genetic variation at the levels of genes, chromosomes, genomes and populations. Mutation, recombination, selection, population genetics and karyotype changes are involved, together with breeding systems.This book constitutes an integrated undergraduate course in applied genetics based on those central concepts. It is suitable for those interested in working with plants, animals, humans or fungi. Such a course, or selected parts of it, is applicable to students of biological, microbiological, agricultural and biomedical sciences.

Reproduction in Fungi
C. Elliot Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0412496402 |
Book Description
The main theme of this book is how reproduction in fungi is controlled by genetic and environmental factors. The genetics of fungi is at a crossroads - the methods of classical genetics are giving way to those of recombinant DNA technology. Reproduction in Fungi takes stock of what has been learned to date and points the way to future research.
