内容説明
Emphasising the principles of genetics most relevant to livestock improvement, this volume covers many aspects of genetics, from the principles laid down in 1865 by Gregor Mendel to the recent developments in genetic engineering. The authors have all made notable research contributions to the field of animal science. The clarity of presentation, the detailed explanations and the thorough discussions will give the reader an insight into the diverse areas which make up the science of genetics and an understanding of the facts and theory on which present-day animal breeding is built.
