This book provides an in-depth analysis of the recent advancements in meiosis. Meiosis, the procedure of producing gametes in preparation for sexual reproduction, has long been a focal point of concentrated research. It has been researched at the cytological, hereditary, molecular and cellular stages. Researches in model systems have exposed universal essential mechanisms while parallel studies in various organisms have led to the discovery of variations in meiotic methods. This book discusses topics related to the molecular biology of mammalian meiosis. It also includes molecular and cytogenetic studies of meiosis in plants. The book collects various strands of examination into this enthralling and demanding field of biology. | Meiosis: Key Concepts by Morgan Key, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
