Product Description: Explains the fundmentals of genetics, covering such topics as inheritance, cell division, DNA, RNA, and genomes, and discusses applications of genetic knowledge with respect to selective breeding, plant cloning, and drug manufacturing.

Product Description: Benign & Pathological Chromosomal Imbalances systematically clarifies the disease implications of cytogenetically visible copy number variants (CG-CNV) using cytogenetic assessment of heterochromatic or euchromatic DNA variants. While variants of several megabasepair can be present in the human genome without clinical consequence, visually distinguishing these benign areas from disease implications does not always occur to practitioners accustomed to costly molecular profiling methods such as FISH, aCGH, and NGS...read more

Product Description: The first Oxford Chromosome Conference, as many will know, was organised by C. D. Darlington and K. R, Lewis and held in the Botany School in July, 1964. Its purpose was to bring together a repres­ entative international group of those concerned with the study of chromosomes, whatever their organism, methods and objective, in the confident expectation that all would profit by learning about the interests, ideas and discoveries of others whose work might other­ wise not come to their attention...read more

This book is known for its clear writing style, emphasis on concepts, visual art program and thoughtful coverage of all areas of genetics. The authors capture readers' interest with up-to-date coverage of cutting-edge topics and research. The authors emphasize those concepts that readers should come to understand and take away with them, not a myriad of details and exceptions that need to memorized and are soon forgotten. In addition to topics traditionally covered in genetics, this book has increased coverage of genomics, including proteomics and bioinformatics, biotechnology, and contains more real-world problems. For anyone in biology, agriculture or health science who is interested in genetics.

Concepts of Genetics is a one semester introductory genetics text that explains genetics concepts in a concise, engaging and up to date manner. Rob Brooker, author of market leading texts in Genetics and Intro Biology for majors, brings his clear and accessible writing style to this new text. He employs the use of experimentation and stresses the fundamentals of the Scientific Method in presenting genetics concepts, then further engages the reader through the use of formative assessment to assist the student in understanding the core genetic principles. The integration of the genetics text and the power of digital world are now complete with McGraw-Hill's ConnectPlus. Users who purchase Connect Plus receive access to the full online ebook version of the textbook.
