The purpose of this and future volumes of the Handbook of Genetics
is to bring together a collection of relatively short,
authoritative essays or annotated compilations of data on topics of
significance to geneticists. Many of the essays will deal with
various aspects of the biology of certain species selected because
they are favorite subjects for genetic investigation in nature or
the laboratory. Often there will be an encyclopedic amount of
information available on such a species, with new papers appearing
daily. Most of these will be written for specialists in a jargon
that is be wildering to a novice, and sometimes even to a veteran
geneticist working with evolutionarily distant organisms. For such
readers what is needed is a written introduction to the morphology,
life cycle, reproductive be havior, and culture methods for the
species in question. What are its par ticular advantages (and
disadvantages) for genetic study, and what have we learned from it?
Where are the classic papers, the key bibliographies, and how does
one get stocks of wild type or mutant strains? The chapters devoted
to different species will contain information of this sort. Only a
few hundreds of the millions of species available to biologists
have been subjected to detailed genetic study. However, those that
have make up a very heterogeneous sample of the living world."
