The techniques used to decipher the genetic makeup of species as
well as epigenetic mechanisms are essential for explaining life
forms and studying their DNA. As a eukaryotic model, "Paramecium"
is well suited for genetic analysis. Taking a rather unconventional
view of genetics, "Paramecium": Genetics and Epigenetics explores
how to use this protozoan as a basis for studying complex cells.
The book discusses various aspects of "Paramecium," including
the cortex, the cytoplasm, nuclei, asexual fission, conjugation,
autogamy, macronuclear regeneration, cytogamy, life cycle phases,
and behavior. It examines the assorted mating types of the genus
and how these mating types are determined. It also elucidates some
techniques that identify genetically defined genes with the DNA
from a library that comprises those genes and details the genetic,
epigenetic, chemical, and molecular facets of several different
traits. In addition, the authors chronicle the history and
reemergence of investigating RNA and DNA in "Paramecium,"
With many powerful tools now available, "Paramecium" research is
entering a new frontier in molecular biology. A full account of
"Paramecium "genetics, this book presents a wealth of
time-consuming observations and remarkable phenomena that will lead
to a better understanding of complex cells.
