The Zebrafish: Biology

Cover
Academic Press, 03.12.1998 - 391 Seiten
This is the first in a two-volume, comprehensive treatment of the methodologies used in researching the Zebrafish, an emerging vertebrate model system. The text includes discussions on development, genetic methodologies, and model applications.

Key Features* Details state-of-the-art zebrafish protocols in a single-source reference* Presents methods and reagents in user-friendly format* Delineates critical steps and pitfalls of he procedures* Illustrates techniques with full-color plates* Summarizes many new and interesting developmental mutants* Includes appendices with strain information and a compendium of zebrafish World Wide Web sites* Relevant to clinicians interested in vertebrate models of human congenital diseases
