Download or read book An Atlas of Drosophila Genes written by Gustavo Maroni and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1993-06-24 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drosophila, the common fruit fly, is the most extensively studied of all organisms from the standpoint of genetics and cytology. This atlas summarizes what is known about the approximately 100 Drosophila genes for which the complete nucleotide sequence is known. Each entry includes a description of the gene's molecular organization and expression, the complete nucleotide and amino acid sequences, maps of interesting structures, highlights of functional features and promoter regulatory regions, and selected references to the primary literature. A separate section of the atlas considers different aspects of gene organization as they occur in the Drosophila genome. Topics covered include size correlations among various genetic elements, splicing signals, translation initiation signals, and codon bias. The work represents a new milestone in summarizing current information and making it easily accessible to geneticists and biologists.
Download or read book Atlas of Drosophila Morphology written by Sylwester Chyb and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-03-23 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Atlas of Drosophila Morphology: Wild-type and Classical Mutants is the guide every Drosophila researcher wished they had when first learning genetic markers, and the tool they wish they had now as a handy reference in their lab research. Previously, scientists had only poor-quality images or sketches to work with, and then scattered resources online - but no single visual resource quickly at their fingertips when explaining markers to new members of the lab, or selecting flies to do their genetic crosses, or hybrids. This alphabetized guide to Drosophila genetic markers lays flat in the lab for easy referencing. It contains high-resolution images of flies and the appropriate marker on the left side of each page and helpful information for the marker on the facing page, such as symbol, gene name, synonyms, chromosome location, brief informative description of the morphology, and comments on marker reliability. A companion website with updated information, useful links, and additional data provided by the authors complements this extremely valuable resource. - Provides an opening chapter with a well-illustrated introduction to Drosophila morphology - Features high-resolution illustrations, including those of the most common markers used by Drosophila researchers - Contains brief, practical descriptions and tips for deciphering the phenotype - Includes material relevant for beginners and the most experienced fly pushers

Book excerpt: This full-color atlas graphically documents the main events of embryonic and post-embryonic development in Drosophila. Schematic surface views and transverse sections from several developmental stages are shown for the individual organs such as gut, nervous system, epidermis and musculature. By combining camera lucida tracing with digital technology, Volker Hartenstein has created a unique, beautiful and convenient reference book that will interest all developmental biologists and is a must for the personal library of anyone working on fly biology.
Download or read book The Drosophila Genome Map written by Daniel L. Hartl and published by Springer. This book was released on 1995 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the physical map of the genome of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, as constructed by in situ hybridization and various methods for identifying overlapping clones in YACs and bacteriophage P1 vectors. The current status of the physical map is presented with emphasis on resolution, biological content, and integration with the genetic map. The genomic localizations of 1200 YAC and 2400 P1 clones are tabulated, along with detailed protocols for the genetic manipulation of the clones. Also discussed is the general utility of the set of mapping clones for research in molecular genetics, development, neurobiology, and evolutionary biology.

Download or read book Won for All written by M. Ashburner and published by CSHL Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the sequencing of the fly genome as told by one of the participants, Michael Ashburner. Written in a diary-like form, half the story is told in numerous footnotes. Ashburner has written a delightful, candid, irreverent, on-the-scene tale filled with eccentric personalities all focused on a single goal. The book also contains an Epilogue that puts Drosophilaas a model system in historical context, and an Afterword that discusses the impact the genome sequence has had on the study of Drosophila.Also included are portraits by Lewis Miller of some of the principal characters. About the author:Michael Ashburner is Professor of Biology in the Department of Genetics at the University of Cambridge. By training and inclination, he is a Drosophilageneticist, although for more than a decade, he has not been where he belongs – the lab bench – but in front of computer screens. He spent six years at the European Bioinformatics Institute, first as the Institute's Research Programme Coordinator, and then as its Joint-Head. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society and an Honorary Foreign Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
