Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell | 5 edition (March 3, 2006) | ISBN: 1405111216 | Pages: 408 | PDF | 21 MB
Explaining the significance, the principles, the techniques, and the applications of gene cloning and DNA analysis, this introduction assumes little prior knowledge on the part of the reader. Particular attention is given to the methods of sequencing genomes and analyzing this sequence. The applications to forensics science are highlighted. Approximately 250 color illustrations are featured. Brown teaches biomolecular archeology at UNMIST
Known world-wide as the standard introductory text to this important and exciting area, the fifth edition of Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis addresses new and growing areas of research whilst retaining the philosophy of the previous editions. Assuming the reader has little prior knowledge of the subject its importance, the principles of the techniques used and their applications are all carefully laid out, with over 250 clearly presented two-colour illustrations.
In addition to a number of informative changes to the text throughout the book, the final four chapters have been significantly updated and extended to reflect the striking advances made in recent years in the applications of gene cloning and DNA analysis in biotechnology:
* Extended chapter on agriculture including new material on glyphosate resistant plants
* New section on the uses of gene cloning and PCR in archaeology
* Coverage of ethical concerns relating to pharming, gene therapy and GM crops
