Opis

Presents an analyses of technologies, as well as explanations of molecular technology as it pertains to agriculture. This book reviews the advances in genome analysis, including DNA amplification (DAF and RAPD) markers, RFLPs, and microsatellites. It includes chapters that focus on special elements of genome analysis.
