Description
Developed as an introduction to new molecular genetic techniques, Insect Molecular Genetics provides literature, terminology and additional sources of infomration to students, researchers and professional entomologists. Although most molecular genetics studies have employed Drosophila, the focus of this book is to apply these same techniques to other insects including pest and beneficial insect of economic importance. Detailed illustrations, suggested readings at the end of each chapter and a glossary of entomological terms are just some of the features offered by this unique reference source.
