Download or read book Invertebrate Zoology written by Robert L. Wallace and published by Benjamin Cummings. This book was released on 1997 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appropriate for a laboratory course in invertebrate zoology. Invertebrate Zoology continues to be the most current, up-to-date manual available. The popular phylum- by-phylum approach has been retained, providing a solid conceptual framework for advanced work in behavior, ecology, physiology, and related subjects. Numerous exercises for studying the structure and function of invertebrates are used. To complete each exercise, students must make observations, conduct investigations, and ask and answer questions all of which helps them gain a comprehensive understanding of invertebrates.
Download or read book A Manual of Practical Zoology INVERTEBRATES written by PS Verma and published by S. Chand Publishing. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides discussion on all aspects of Invertebrates as covered in Practical Zoology. Beginning with general techniques of preparation of cultures of Protozoa, microscopic slides and laboratory regents, it also covers in tabular and detailed form, recent classification of various invertebrate phyla with examples of each order or suborder. Wide coverage of each phylum, and diagrams of major and minor dissections make the book equally useful for both undergraduate and postgraduate students.
Download or read book Invertebrate Zoology written by Alan R. Holyoak and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This laboratory manual supports a one-semester course in invertebrate zoology. Exercises in this manual focus on an approach where you observe specimens, draw them, write down your own observations about them, and then pose questions based on what you observed. This pattern of observing and asking is the same approach zoologists often take when they develop new lines research about what animals do and how their bodies work. The manual includes introductions to microscopy and phylogenetic analysis, and hands-on exercises focusing on representatives from the following animal taxa: Symplasma - syncytial sponges; Cellularia - cellular sponges; Cnidaria - Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, Cubozoa, and Anthozoa; Platyhelminthes - Turbellaria, Neodermata (Monogenea, Digenea, and Cestoda); Mollusca - Polyplacophora, Gastropoda, Cephalopoda, and Bivalvia; Annelida - Sipuncula, Errantia, Sedentaria; Brachiopoda (articulate and inarticulate); Nematoda; Panarthropoda - Lobopodia, Tardigrada, Arthropoda (Trilobilomorpha, Chelicerata, Arachnida, Crustacea, Myriapoda, Hexapoda); Echinodermata - Asteroidea, Echinoidea, Holothuroidea, echinoderm development; Hemichordata - Enteropneusta; and Chordata - Tunicata, Cephalochordata. I produced these exercises because the prices of textbooks and laboratory manuals have become extremely expensive over the past 20+ years. Students today sometimes have to spend over $90 for a new copy of a laboratory manual in invertebrate zoology. I'm sorry, but in my opinion that's just too much. I field-tested these exercises in my invertebrate zoology course over the past five years, and I just completed a comprehensive review of this material. I hope this lab manual will now help provide at least a little financial relief when it's time for today's invertebrate zoology students to buy books.

Download or read book Manual of Techniques in Invertebrate Pathology written by Lawrence A. Lacey and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-04-25 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manual of Techniques in Invertebrate Pathology, Second Edition, describes a wide range of techniques used in the identification, isolation, propagation/cultivation, bioassay, quantification, preservation, and storage of the major groups of entomopathogens, including entomophthorales, entomopathogenic fungi, entomopathogenic bacteria of the Bacilli, Nematode parasites, and pathogens and parasites of terrestrial molluscs. The book presents the perspectives of an international group of experts in the fields of invertebrate pathology, including microbiology, mycology, virology, nematology, biological control, and integrated pest management. Organized into 15 chapters, the book covers methods for the study of virtually every major group of entomopathogen, as well as methods for discovery and diagnosis of entomopathogens and the use of complementary methods for microscopy. It discusses the use of molecular techniques for identifying and determining phylogeny, factors that contribute to resistance to entomopathogens, and several other aspects of the science of invertebrate pathology. It also explains initial handling and diagnosis of diseased invertebrates, basic techniques in insect virology, and bioassay of bacterial entomopathogens against insect larvae. In addition, the reader is introduced to the use of bacteria against soil-inhabiting insects and preservation of entomopathogenic fungal cultures. The remaining chapters focus on research methods for entomopathogenic microsporidia and other protists, how the pathogenicity and infectivity of entomopathogens to mammals are tested, and preparations of entomopathogens and diseased specimens for more detailed study using microscopy. Experienced insect pathologists, biologists, entomologists, students, biotechnology personnel, technicians, those working in the biopesticide industry, and government regulators will find this manual extremely helpful. - Step-by-step instructions for the latest techniques on how to isolate, identify, culture, bioassay and store the major groups of entomopathogens - New edition fully updated to address changes in the taxonomy of the vast majority of taxa - Discussion of safety testing of entomopathogens in mammals and also broader methods such as microscopy and molecular techniques - Provides extensive supplemental literature and recipes for media, fixatives and stains

Download or read book Invertebrate Tissue Culture Methods written by Jun Mitsuhashi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I started insect cell culture work in 1962, when T. D. C. Grace reported the first establishment of invertebrate continuous cell lines. He obtained grow ing cells from pupal ovaries of the emperor gum moth, Antheraea euca lypti. At that time, I was trying to obtain growing cells from leafhoppers. Grace's method could not be applied directly to my culture because of the differences in species, the size of the insects, and the tissue to be cul tured. The vertebrate tissue culture methods gave me some ideas for pre paring cultures from leafhoppers, but those could not be used directly either. There were no textbooks and no manuals for invertebrate tissue culture, so I had to develop a method by myself. First, I considered what type and what size of vessels are suitable for insect tissue culture. Also, I had to look for suitable materials to construct the culture vessels. Sec ond, I had to examine various culture media, especially growth-promot ing substances, such as sera. Then I had to improve culture media by trial and error. The procedure to set up a primary culture was also a problem. How could I sterilize materials? How could I remove tissues from a tiny insect? How many tissues should I pool in order to set up one culture? I had to find out the answers. Naturally, it took a lot of time.
