内容説明

This is the second edition of a widely recognized and authoritative text, written by an authority in the field. Emphasises modern topics, and reflects progress in DNA technology and focuses more on direct analysis of the genome. Preliminary chapters are presented which examine the biochemical basis for heredity as seen through the structure of DNA, making it accessible for the student with only a casual knowledge of biochemistry. Features include extensive new figures, drawings and illustrations.
