Book excerpt: Integrating classical knowledge of chromosome organisation with recent molecular and functional findings, this book presents an up-to-date view of chromosome organisation and function for advanced undergraduate students studying genetics. The organisation and behaviour of chromosomes is central to genetics and the equal segregation of genes and chromosomes into daughter cells at cell division is vital. This text aims to provide a clear and straightforward explanation of these complex processes. Following a brief historical introduction, the text covers the topics of cell cycle dynamics and DNA replication; mitosis and meiosis; the organisation of DNA into chromatin; the arrangement of chromosomes in interphase; euchromatin and heterochromatin; nucleolus organisers; centromeres and telomeres; lampbrush and polytene chromosomes; chromosomes and evolution; chromosomes and disease, and artificial chromosomes. Topics are illustrated with examples from a wide variety of organisms, including fungi, plants, invertebrates and vertebrates. This book will be valuable resource for plant, animal and human geneticists and cell biologists. Originally a zoologist, Adrian Sumner has spent over 25 years studying human and other mammalian chromosomes with the Medical Research Council (UK). One of the pioneers of chromosome banding, he has used electron microscopy and immunofluorescence to study chromosome organisation and function, and latterly has studied factors involved in chromosome separation at mitosis. Adrian is an Associate Editor of the journal Chromosome Research, acts as a consultant biologist and is also Chair of the Committee of the International Chromosome Conferences. The most up-to-date overview of chromosomes in all their forms. Introduces cutting-edge topics such as artificial chromosomes and studies of telomere biology. Describes the methods used to study chromosomes. The perfect complement to Turner.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand the clinical application of genetics in ob-gyn practice with this case-based text This up-to-date resource surveys the modern field of genetics and provides you with a practical understanding of its clinical uses. Whether determining who is pre-disposed to disease, how a patient will respond to therapy, or what the optimal cancer treatment might be based on tumor profiles, this is the only guide to help efficiently interpret and utilize genetic data across the full spectrum of ob-gyn clinical scenarios. Practical Genetics for the Ob-Gyn is organized around three central themes: basic genetic principles, clinical applications of ob-gyn practice, and common methods of genetic testing. Opening each chapter is a patient case study that establishes a realistic clinical context for the subsequent genetics-based material addressed.

The chapters in this issue describe the advances that have been made possible by combining microscope techniques with sophisticated biochemical and genetic approaches to unlock the secrets of chromosomes. The authors look at many aspects of chromosome biology, such as protein, DNA and RNA composition of chromosomes, defined chromosome structures, unusual chromosome structures and specialized chromosomes and microscope tools for chromosome analysis. 'Chromosome Structure and Function' will be an invaluable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students in fields such as plant and animal sciences, genetics, and molecular biology. In fact, any student, teacher or researcher interested in chromosome biology will find this special issue indispensable.
