It provides enough information so readers will be able to apply the approach to their own research project.\"Genetic Techniques for Biological Research\" ist ein Lehrbuch für fortgeschrittene Studenten und Doktoranden der Genetik, Molekularbiologie und Zellbiologie. Es basiert auf Fallstudien zur Hefe Saccharomyces als genetischem Modellorganismus, an dem anschaulich Theorie und Praxis der molekulargenetischen Analyse demonstriert wird. Darüber hinaus bietet es dem Leser umfassende Informationen, damit er diesen Ansatz in seine eigenen Forschungsprojekte einbauen kann. Autorin Corinne Michels - eine Expertin auf dem Gebiet der Hefegenetik und Molekularbiologie - erklärt hier genau, wie man praktische genetische Studien mit Hilfe von durchgearbeiteten Beispielen kritisch bewertet. Auf diese Weise soll der Leser die Fähigkeit zu kritischem Denken entwickeln, um das Material in eigenen Forschungsarbeiten anwenden zu können. Ein idealer Studienbegleiter zu Theorie und Praxis der molekulargenetischen Analyse!

These techniques have been developed over the past decades by researchers working with model organisms such as bacteriophage, E. coli, Saccharomyces, Drosophila, maize, and more recently, Arabidopsis and C. elegans.
