Riassunto

Practical methods for the generation and analysis of transgenic animals, covering a comprehensive range of species, from invertebrates to lower vertebrates to higher vertebrates. Chapters examine ways in which transgenic techniques can be used to address many problems in biological systems present in-depth descriptions of analytical methods, and give step-by-step techniques that can be easily performed in your lab.
