Methods In Arabidopsis Research

Více o knize

Arabidopsis is a small weed that is becoming increasingly important in molecular and genetic research on plants, because it has a small genome, is easy to grow, and mutates easily and predictably. For students and scientists working in molecular botany, describes the various methods of research, such as chromosome walking using yeast artificial chromosomes, genome mapping, and gene isolation with the polymerase chain reaction. Many of the chapters were tested as lectures during an advanced course in Cologne, Germany, in April 1992. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
