"Molecular Research in Aquaculture" opens with background information on the aquaculture industry, development of new species, the benefits of increased production, and discussion of new techniques now being in aquaculture research. Introductory chapters include information on basic molecular biological techniques such as PCR, cloning, and hybridization; and subsequent chapters review key areas of molecular research such as microarray analysis, quantitative PCR, and transgenics. "Molecular Research in Aquaculture" will be a valuable reference for professionals and researchers with an interest in the development of molecular technologies in aquaculture production.
