Summary

• "As before, this book provides a step-by-step outline of the techniques involved in genome mapping and sequencing. However, the text has now been greatly expanded to cover genomics and its sub-disciplines. Sections on genome sequencing and bioinformatics have been extensively revised and new chapters have been included that cover comparative genomics, functional genomics and proteomics.
• The book concludes with a new chapter describing a variety of ways to utilize genomics in biology, medicine and agriculture." "Aimed at advanced undergraduates, this text will follow the same format as the Principles of Gene Manipulation by Primrose, Twyman and Old, now in its sixth edition."--BOOK JACKET.
