Infos

Detection of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) has become a 'hot' topic in genetics in recent years and is of major agricultural significance. This advanced textbook describes the scientific literature and principles on methods for quantitative trait loci detection and analysis and marker assisted selection in animal breeding. - No other similar textbook in this area - Author has excellent reputation in the field - This is a new and dynamically developing area of research, of worldwide interest
