\u003cb\u003eGENETIC THEORY AND ANALYSIS\u003c/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUnderstand and apply what drives change of characteristic genetic traits and heredity\u003c/b\u003e \u003cp\u003eGenetics is the study of how traits are passed from parents to their offspring and how the variation in those traits affects the development and health of the organism. Investigating how these traits affect the organism involves a diverse set of approaches and tools, including genetic screens, DNA and RNA sequencing, mapping, and methods to understand the structure and function of proteins. Thus, there is a need for a textbook that provides a broad overview of these methods. \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGenetic Theory and Analysis\u003c/i\u003e meets this need by describing key approaches and methods in genetic analysis through a historical lens. Focusing on the five basic principles underlying the field\u0026#8212;mutation, complementation, recombination, segregation, and regulation\u0026#8212;it identifies the full suite of tests and methodologies available to the geneticist in an age of flourishing genetic and genomic research. This second edition of the text has been updated to reflect recent advances and increase accessibility to advanced undergraduate students. \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGenetic Theory and Analysis, 2nd edition\u003c/i\u003e readers will also find: \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDetailed treatment of subjects including mutagenesis, meiosis, complementation, suppression, and more\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUpdated discussion of epistasis, mosaic analysis, RNAi, genome sequencing, and more\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAppendices discussing model organisms, genetic fine-structure analysis, and tetrad analysis\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGenetic Theory and Analysis\u003c/i\u003e is ideal for both graduate students and advanced undergraduates undertaking courses in genetics, genetic engineering, and computational biology. |
