Genomes 5

Více o produktu ↓

Genomes 5 has beenrigorously updated. It is a thoroughly modern textbook about genomes and how they are investigated. As with previous editions, techniques come first, then genome anatomies, followed by genome function, and finally genome evolution. The genomes of all types of organism are covered: viruses, bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals including humans. Genome sequencing and assembly methods have been thoroughly revised including a survey of four genome projects: human, Neanderthal, giant panda, and barley to include new developments in long-read DNA sequencing. Thisis the ideal text for upper-level courses focused on genomes and genomics.
