About this title

Synopsis

This new two-volume set presents the classical and advanced aspects of chromosomal and genomic structures and functions with special reference to chromosomes and cell division, providing a comprehensive resource for beginners, experts, and those venturing into the fascinating science of chromosomes and cell division.

Volume 2 explores the future of genetic engineering and discusses epigenetics, the role of the nucleus, inheritance and its biological mechanisms, cytoplasmic inheritance, DNA as a genetic material, nuclear membranes, gene expression in prokaryotes, gene expression in eukaryotes, and genetics and evolution.

Volume 1: Chromosomes and Cell Divisions discusses biotechnology and its applications, the chromosomal theory of inheritance, the chromosome itself, the types of cell division (mitosis and meiosis), structural changes in chromosomes, genes and cell division, sex determination, chromosome and mutations, and chromosomal movements during cell division.

Providing up-to-date information and recent developments in genetics research, these two volumes will be a valuable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as faculty and researchers in cell biology, genetics, molecular genetics, evolution, biochemistry, biotechnology, botany, zoology, agriculture, and horticultural science.
