Zebrafish

by Leslie Wilson, Paul Matsudaira, Leonard I. Zon, Monte Westerfield

Cover of Zebrafish

"The Zebrafish: Genetics and Genomics presents laboratory protocols and reviews that focus on Danio rerio, the tropical, freshwater fish that has emerged as an extremely powerful molecular-genetic model system for analysis of vertebrate development. This volume describes strategies and methods for genetic screening to obtain developmental mutants and techniques for mapping mutations and cloning the causative genes. Accessible to novices and "old hands" alike, this volume provides a comprehensive reference to current genetic and genomic approaches in zebrafish."--BOOK JACKET.
