Fish Cytogenetics

by E Pisano (Editor), C. Ozouf-Costaz (Editor), F. Foresti (Editor)

Overview

In the past 20 years, fish cytogenetics has become an essential tool in fields as diverse as systematics and evolution, conservation, aquaculture and more recently, genomics. This book is organized in four sections (systematics and evolution; biodiversity conservation; stock assessment and aquaculture; genomics) covering the major fields of present
