Laboratory and Field Investigations in Marine Life, 11e
Pages: 238,
Specialty: Life Science,
Publisher: Jones & Bartlett,
Publication Year: 2018,
Cover: Spiral bound,
Dimensions: 210.82x271.78x15.24mm
Now in full color, Laboratory and Field Investigations in Marine Life is a unique marine biology laboratory and field manual that engages students in the excitement and challenges of understanding marine organisms and the environments in which they live. With activities designed to encourage students to develop their own powers of critical observation and analysis, students will benefit from a thorough examination of topics such as the physical and chemical properties of seawater, marine microbes, algae, and a wide variety of invertebrate and vertebrate animals. The new, more convenient spiral binding allows the manual to lay flat on lab tables while students work, and they can easily tear out pages to submit for a grade. Laboratory and Field Investigations in Marine Life, Eleventh Edition is an ideal resource to accompany Introduction to the Biology of Marine Life, Eleventh Edition and the clear choice for an engaging, hands-on exploration of marine biology. show more

Microbial Pathogenomics
Pages: 224,
Specialty: Life Science,
Publisher: Karger AG,
Publication Year: 2009,
Cover: Hardback,
Dimensions: 193.04x259.08x15.24mm
"Microbial Pathogenomics" contains a unique collection of reviews demonstrating how genomics has revolutionized our understanding of virulence, host-adaptation strategies and the evolution of bacterial pathogens. Current technologies - computational tools and functional approaches to genome analysis - are carefully documented and clearly illustrated. These include visualization tools for genome comparison, databases, in silico metabolic reconstructions and function prediction as well as interactomics for the study of protein-protein interactions. The concepts of pan-genomics and reverse vaccinology are introduced as strategies when addressing the challenge presented by bacterial diversity in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. The authors explore individual bacterial pathogens and discuss the mechanisms that have contributed to their evolutionary success. Special cases of host adaptation, for example, are illustrated by Helicobacter pylori and 'Mycobacterium tuberculosis' which are human-specific and highly persistent; further bacteria discussed include 'Escherichia coli, Campylobacter, Pseudomonas, Legionella, Bartonella, Burkholderia' and 'Staphylococcus'. "Microbial Pathogenomics" provides the reader with a global view of key aspects and future trends in bacterial pathogenomics and evaluates their impact on the understanding and treatment of infectious diseases. Well illustrated and accessible to both specialists and nonspecialists, it is recommended not only for researchers in microbiology, genomics and biotechnology, but also for lecturers and teachers.show more

Molecular and Evolutionary Cytogenetics of Domestic Animals
Pages: 226,
Specialty: Life Science,
Publisher: Karger AG,
Publication Year: 2010,
Cover: Hardback,
Dimensions: 213.36x281.94x15.24mm
"Molecular and Evolutionary Cytogenetics of Domestic Animals" is dedicated to the Indian scientist Parvathi K. Basrur, who initiated her creative and productive scientific career in India during the early 1950s. As a prominent founder of veterinary cytogenetics, for almost 60 years she has been fascinated by the magic of chromosomes focusing on animal health, reproduction and response to environmental exposure to toxins, carcinogens and clastogens. She is internationally recognized not only as a pioneer in the field of veterinary cytogenetics, but also as a teacher, mentor and founder of the veterinary genetics curriculum in the Canadian Veterinary Colleges. Parvathi K. Basrur is also known as an ambassador for the promotion of research and training in reproduction, veterinary genetics and cytogenetics. The following collection of papers illustrates the renewed interest in and importance of the discipline among an elite group of scientists working around the world. It covers both basic and applied aspects of animal chromosome and genome studies providing the scientific community with a timely compendium. All biologist involved in domestic and nondomestic animal cytology and cytogenetics, scientists interested in genomes of domestic animal species, and students from agricultural and veterinary faculties will benefit from this special topic issue.show more
