Description for Atlas of Mammalian Chromosomes
Hardcover. Chromosomes can be identified based on the size, shape, and most importantly, by the characteristic banding patterns generated by certain stains. Karyotypes are generated by photographing stained chromosome preparations and then arranging the chromosome pairs by number. Editor(s): O'Brien, Stephen J.; Menninger, Joan C.; Nash, William G. Num Pages: 714 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 283 x 224 x 40. Weight in Grams: 2314.
A stunning visual collection of the banded metaphase chromosomekaryotypes from some 850 species of mammals, the Atlas of MammalianChromosomes represents an unabridged compendium of the state ofthis genomic art form. Bringing together information currentlyscattered throughout the cytogenetics literature for scores ofpublished and unpublished species, this atlas features high-qualitykaryotype images for nearly every mammal studied to date, making itthe most comprehensive assemblage of high-resolution chromosomephotographs available--a critically invaluable resource for today'scomparative genomics era.
For every available species, the Atlas of Mammalian Chromosomespresents the best karyotype produced, the common and Latin name ofthe species, the published citation, and the ... Read more

Reviews for Atlas of Mammalian Chromosomes
"...a valuable resource for geneticists, mammalogists, andbiologists interested in comparative genomics, systematics, andchromosome structure." (The Quarterly Review of Biology,March 2007) "...a valuable resource. Its meticulous attention to sourcesfor all information exemplifies its excellent scholarship. Itshould be in all academic libraries." (American Reference BooksAnnual, March 2007)
