Full Description
This new comprehensive two-volume set, Molecular Genetics, Structures, Mechanisms, and Functions, covers all the classical and advanced aspects of molecular genetics and gene manipulation, putting this information in one place for beginners, experts, and those venturing into the fascinating science of molecular biology.
Volume 1: Principles of Gene Manipulation and Genomics provides an overview of the future of genetic engineering and delves into the role of biotechnology and its applications in genetic engineering. It discusses the tools of recombinant technology, which have brought about revolution in our understanding of various complex biological phenomenon. Chapters cover mutagenesis, construction, and sequencing of DNA libraries along with applications of genetic engineering for improving health, preventing genetic diseases, enhancing food resources, managing environmental bioremediation, and more. Topics include genetic engineering tools for restriction enzymes and vectors, gene and cell division, mutation detection and screening in plants, population genetics, sexuality in bacteria, and more. Several chapters focus on the tools of recombinant technology, such as restriction enzymes, vectors, etc., that have paved the way for creating organisms of choice and opened new horizons in the field of medicine, agriculture, and industry for human welfare.
Volume 2: Applications and Exploring the Nucleus continues the coverage of generic engineering, dealing with the concept of genes, their relationship with chromosomes, and their functional manifestation to the benefit of organisms at large and for humans in particular. Topics include Mendel's Laws of Inheritance, which explains the inheritance of traits visible through generations; , genome diversity and evolution genetic protein synthesis, recombination and evolution of DNA, transposable elements in genetics, chromosomal aberrations, and more. The volume also addresses genetic engineering in agricultural science for increased crop yields, to reduce costs for food or drug production, to reduce the need for pesticides, to enhance crop quality, etc.
Providing a wealth of knowledge, Molecular Genetics, Structures, Mechanisms, and Functions will be a valuable asset for researchers and scientists working in the field of genetics, molecular genetics, mutation breeding and plant breeding, as well as for faculty and students.
