Robinson''s Genetics for Cat Breeders & Veterinarians 4th Edition is an essential purchase for all breeders of pedigreed cats, practising small animal veterinarians and veterinary undergraduates. This fully revised edition re-establishes Genetics for Cat Breeders as the text of choice in the field of feline genetics.

Esta nueva edición incluye una revisión completa y aumentada de la genética molecular (capítulo 1 y capítulos 4 al 8). Ahora, estos seis capítulos pueden utilizarse como un texto independiente de biologia molecular. Como antes, el libro finaliza con una seccion principal sobre las celulas en su contexto social, pero se ha añadido un nuevo capitulo sobre patogenesis, infeccion e inmunidad innata. En el se reflejan los importantes avances de la biologia celular en el conocimiento de la infeccion y se pone de nuevo de manifiesto que las enfermedades infecciosas constituyen uno de los mayores peligros no conquistados de nuestro mundo. Cada libro lleva un disco CD-ROM, con docenas de videoclips, animaciones, estructuras moleculares y micrografias de alta resolucion. Esperamos que este disco interactivo avivara la curiosidad de los estudiantes, haciendo el estudio de la biologia molecular mas facil y gratificante

This book traces the history of some of the major ideas in the field and gives an account of our current knowledge of animal cytokinesis. It contains descriptions of division in different kinds of cells and the proposed explanations of the mechanisms underlying the visible events. The author also describes and explains experiments devised to test cell division theories. The forces necessary for cytokinesis now appear to originate from the interaction of linear polymers and motor molecules that have roles in force production, motion and shape change that occur in other phases of the biology of the cell. The localization of the force-producing mechanism to a restricted linear part of the subsurface is caused by the mitotic apparatus, the same cytoskeletal structure that insures orderly mitosis.

"Monitoring Plant and Animal Populations" is a thorough overview of monitoring issues. It is designed for field biologists and land managers with a modest statistical background. The authors have written a practical text that will include concrete guidelines for ecologists to follow to design a statistically defensible monitoring program for natural populations and communities. Features User-friendly, practical guide, written in a highly readable format which integrates the theme of decision making guidance and management. Only population monitoring text to focus on both plant and animals. Interdisciplinary in scope, given the current, widespread interest in monitoring in many environmental fields including pure and applied ecology, conservation biology, and wildlife management. Includes suggestions for monitoring plant and animal communities. Outlines the essential concepts in monitoring populations. Emphasizes the role o monitoring in adaptive management. Defines important terminology and contrasts monitoring with other data-collection activities. Provides a step-by-step overview of the monitoring process, as illustrated by flow charts and references. Illustrates the foundation of management objectives and describes their components, types, and development. Describes basic terms and concepts relevant to sampling using simple examples. Explains how to make basic decisions in designing a sample-based monitoring study. Provides field techniques for measuring important attributes of animal and plant populations. Covers different ways of recording monitoring data in the field and describes means for entering and managing field monitoringdata sets with computers. Comprehensive presentation of statistical analysis and communicating results. "Monitoring Plant and Animal Populations" offers an overview of population monitoring issues that is accessible to the typical field biologist and land managers with a modest statistical background. The text includes concrete guidelines for ecologists to follow to design a statistically defensible monitoring program. User-friendly, practical guide, written in a highly readable format. The authors provide an interdi

Written for those who have taken a first course in statistical methods, this book takes a modern, computer-oriented approach to describe the statistical techniques used for the assessment of reliabil

Texto de genética general más completo, claro y atractivo en el mercado. Esta nueva edición aborda con énfasis especial el análisis genético moderno, lo que ha motivado la incorporación de nuevos conceptos y tecnicas de analisis y una reorganizacion completa de los contenidos. La genetica mendeliana se presenta en dos capitulos. El desarrollo sigue a la regulacion genetica. El cancer se integra como patologia de referencia a lo largo del texto. Plantea numerosos ejemplos y ejercicios en forma de problemas, que ayudan a identificar los genes y sus interacciones y a comprender mejor sus propiedades biologicas. Incorpora varios capitulos nuevos, entre ellos, un abordaje original de la regulacion de la expresion genetica en eucariotas a cargo del Dr. Sean Carroll, lider indiscutible en la ciencia de "evo devo" y nuevo coautor de la obra.
