Genetic Resources of Neotropical Fishes

Autor Alexandre W. S. Hilsdorf, Eric M. Hallerman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 iun 2017
The aim of this book is to systematize and discuss population genetic studies of freshwater fish in a region that harbors the greatest diversity of species among all inland water ecosystems. This volume explores the genetic evaluation for a number of orders, families and species of Neotropical fishes, and provides an overview on genetic resources and diversity and their relationships with fish domestication, breeding, and food production.
