Avian Embryology 2nd Edition

Avian Embryology & Development

Description: Avian Embryology is a scientific reference exploring the use of bird embryos, particularly chick embryos, to study vertebrate development. It covers modern techniques in developmental biology, including chick genome analysis, gene knock-out studies, RNA interference, and morpholinos. Practical guidance highlights the applications, advantages, and limitations of key cellular and embryological techniques.
