책소개

New edition of a world-renowned introductory text to the rapidly-growing and dynamic field of Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis is a comprehensive introductory text that explores all of the topics vital for a complete understanding of gene cloning and DNA analysis. Presented in full color, the text’s easy-to-follow layout and over 250 clear illustrations make the material simple and accessible for a diverse readership. This newly revised and updated Ninth Edition highlights new developments in DNA sequencing technology and provides extended coverage on DNA editing including CRISPR methodology and its applications in gene therapy and plant genetic engineering. This edition also contains updates on topics including optical mapping of DNA molecules, studying transcriptomes in situ, RNA interference methods for silencing genes in crop plants, studying kinship by DNA profiling, and using ancient DNA to study human prehistory and palaeogenomics. Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis also discusses topics such as: The strategies used by researchers and industry practitioners to assemble telomere-to-telomere chromosome sequencesThe synthesis of recombinant vaccines for diseases such as COVID-19 and hepatitis BInterbreeding between Neanderthals and Homo sapiensThe ethical issues raised by the use of gene cloning and DNA editing in pharming, gene therapy and plant genetic modification The Ninth Edition of Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis continues to be an essential reference for undergraduate and graduate students within the fields of genetics and genomics, molecular biology, biochemistry, immunology, and applied biology, as well as professionals in all areas of biological science.
