Mechanisms of Morphogenesis
Autor Jamie A. Daviesen Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 apr 2013
By combining hard data with computer modeling, Mechanisms of Morphogenesis, second edition equips readers with a much broader understanding of the scope of modern research than is otherwise available. The book focuses on the ways in which the genetic program is translated to generate cell shape, to direct cell migration, and to produce the shape, form and rates of growth of the various tissues. Each topic is illustrated with experimental data from real systems, with particular reference to gaps in current knowledge and pointers to future
- Includes over 200 four-color figures
- Offers an integrated view of theoretical developmental biology and computer modelling with laboratory-based discoveries
- Covers experimental techniques as a guide to the reader
- Organized around principles and mechanisms, using them to integrate discoveries from a range of organisms and systems

Recenzii
"Davies retains from the first edition the concentration on morphogenesis itself…with other aspects of development taken for granted, and the organization that progresses in size from the sub-cellular systems critical for larger scale morphogenesis to mechanisms that concern whole population of cells… to keep the textbook manageable, he has presented some material more succinctly, such as the morphogenesis of sub-cellular structures." --ProtoView.com, January 2014
