Methods of Genome Analysis in Plants

By Prem P. Jauhar

This extensively illustrated book describes in detail the classical and molecular techniques of elucidating genomic and phylogenetic relationships in plants. The advent of novel techniques like genomic painting, chromosome microdissection, and microcloning has added a new level of sophistication to plant genome analysis and gene mapping. Each of the 20 chapters covers the nature, advantages, and limitations of a genome analysis technique. Each chapter has been written by one or more specialists, who have given an authoritative account of the subject. This invaluable sourcebook will be useful to professionals and graduate students interested in genome analysis, gene mapping, and organic evolution. The book will particularly benefit cytogeneticists, plant breeders, taxonomists, biosytematists, molecular biologists, and biotechnologists.
