Book Synopsis Practical Manual on Plant Cytogenetics by : Ram J. Singh
Download or read book Practical Manual on Plant Cytogenetics written by Ram J. Singh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earlier books on the handling of plant chromosomes have not included many of the innovations in cytological techniques for many important crops that have become available in recent years, including information on associating genes with chromosomes. The aim of this book is to compile all the plant cytogenetic techniques, previously published in earlier books, into a laboratory manual. The first part of the book describes standard cytological techniques that are routinely used by students. The second part covers methods used for specific crops for which common cytological methods do not work satisfactorily. The third part discusses cytogenetic techniques (cytology and genetics) for physically locating genes on specific chromosomes. This novel book will be highly useful to students, teachers, and researchers as it is a convenient and comprehensive reference for all plant cytogenetic techniques and protocols.

Book Synopsis Cytogenetics in Plant Breeding by : J. Sybenga
Download or read book Cytogenetics in Plant Breeding written by J. Sybenga and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introductory discussion of basic chromosome structure and function preceeds the main text on the application of cytogenetic approaches to the analysis of the manipulation of both the genetic make-up and the genetic transmission system of plant breeding material. Analysis using light and electron microscopy, segregations and molecular techniques, yields information for assessing the material before and after manipulation. Much attention is given to quantitative methods. Manipulation not only involves the construction of specific genotypes, but also chromosomal transmission systems. Although analysis and manipulation in the somatic cycle are considered, the focus is on the generative cycle, with emphasis on analysis and subsequent segregation of specifically constructed material. The book is intended for plant breeders and other scientists interested in the analysis and manipulation of breeding material at the chromosomal level. Comparisons with molecular and cell biological approaches are made, and the potential of the various methods is evaluated.

Book excerpt: Cytogenetics plays an important role in understanding the chromosomal and genetic architecture of plant species. Plant Cytogenetics, Third Edition follows the tradition of its predecessors presenting theoretical and practical aspects of plant cytogenetics. Chapters describe correct handling of plant chromosomes, methods in plant cytogenetics, cell division, reproduction methods, chromosome nomenclature, karyotype analysis, chromosomal aberrations, genome analysis, transgenic crops, and cytogenetics in plant breeding. This new edition begins with a brief introduction on the historical aspect of cytogenetics and flows directly into handling of plant chromosomes by classical and modern cytological techniques, classical Mendelian Genetics, brief description of cell division, and chromosome identification by karyotype analysis. The comprehension of cytogenetics is incomplete without information on the role of aneuploidy in associating a gene on a particular chromosome, and the book covers these methodologies as a primary topic. Covering classical to modern cytogenetics, the book presents to the reader the crucial role of cytogenetics in improving crops.

Book Synopsis Advances in Plant Cytogenetics by : James Arthur Birchler
Download or read book Advances in Plant Cytogenetics written by James Arthur Birchler and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research reported in this volume illustrates the utility of incorporating cytogenetic tools into biological studies. Somatic chromosome identification is now becoming routine in selected plant species, and the utility of this technique will increase as it expands to other taxa. Individual genes or DNA fragments can be localized to chromosomes in combination with chromosomal identification techniques, which bypasses the need for multiple generations of genetic analysis to map molecular markers to chromosomal positions. The identity of individuals with chromosomal changes can be determined in root tip metaphase spreads, with subsequent growth of these individuals for further genetic and molecular analyses. These new techniques have allowed examination of chromosomal behavior in meiotic and somatic preparations at the whole-genome level. They are also the basis for studies of changes in chromosomal structure or transposable elements in different cells of a single tissue. The studies in this volume illustrate many of these applications and the diversity of research avenues they open up. This publication will be of interest to cytogeneticists, cytologists, cell biologists and evolutionary biologists.

Book Synopsis Reviews in Plant Cytogenetics by : Maria J. Puertas
Download or read book Reviews in Plant Cytogenetics written by Maria J. Puertas and published by S. Karger AG (Switzerland). This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chromosomes represent the main focus of cytogenetics. One of the main challenges of modern-day cytogenetics is to unravel the relation between the genomic content and architecture of chromosomes and their genetic function. Plant species have provided an important contribution to the knowledge of chromosome evolution, and those with large chromosomes have often been used in the study of chromosome behavior. The rapid development of molecular tools in the last few years has greatly furthered advances in elucidating the organization, behavior and evolution of chromosomes. This special issue of Cytogenetic and Genome Research presents an excellent compilation of current research in plant cytogenetics. In a series of review articles experts in the field explain and discuss the organization of chromosomes and the impact of new technologies, the organization and evolution of sex chromosomes and B chromosomes, recent advances in meiosis, and different aspects of chromosome evolution and plant breeding. Providing an excellent update, this book is recommended to researchers, teachers and students in genetics, plant biology and agronomy.
