by: M Demerec publisher: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, published: 2008-04-29 ASIN: 0879698284 EAN: 9780879698287 sales rank: 532212 Biology of Drosophila was first published by John Wiley and Sons in 1950. Until its appearance, no central, synthesized source of biological data on Drosophila melanogaster was available, despite the fly's importance to science for three decades. Ten years in the making, it was an immediate success and remained in print for two decades. However, original copies are now very hard to find. This facsimile edition makes available to the fly community once again its most enduring work of reference. |

by: Michael Bate publisher: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, published: 1993-01-01 ASIN: 0879698993 EAN: 9780879698997 sales rank: 1027582 The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster offers the most powerful means of studying embryonic development in eukaryotes. New information from many different organ systems has accumulated rapidly in the past decade. This monograph, written by the most distinguished workers in the field, is the most authoritative and comprehensive synthesis of Drosophila developmental biology available and emphasizes the insights gained by molecular and genetic analysis. In two volumes, it is a lavishly illustrated, elegantly designed reference work illustrating principles of genetic regulation of embryogenesis that may apply to other eukaryotes. |

The original format is maintained, providing a handy reference guide to most aspects of the biology of Drosophila. Each of the thirty six chapters summarizes the present state of the subject, written with a historical perspective, but with an emphasis on the practical use of genetic and other methods. Extensively referenced. |

by: Bing Zhang publisher: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, published: 2010-05-07 ASIN: 0879699051 EAN: 9780879699055 sales rank: 497433 Cold Spring Harbor Laboratorys long-running Neurobiology of Drosophila course has trained a generation of neuroscientists, many of whom have become leaders in the field. Drosophila Neurobiology: A Laboratory Manual offers the detailed protocols and background material developed by the course instructors to all researchers interested in using Drosophila as an experimental model for investigating the nervous system. The manual covers three approaches to the field: Analysis of Neural Development, Recording and Imaging Activities in the Nervous System, and Analyzing Behavior. Techniques described include molecular, genetic, electrophysiological, imaging, behavioral and developmental methods. Written by leading experts from the community, Drosophila Neurobiology: A Laboratory Manual is an essential guide for researchers at all levels, from the beginning graduate student through the established primary investigator.

by: Ralph J. Greenspan publisher: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, published: 1997-03-01 ASIN: 0879694920 EAN: 9780879694920 sales rank: 352381 This study aims to give investigators the chance to combine molecular and genetic approaches in studies of gene expression, cell function and development. Fly genetics has a large and complex folklore to which this guide aims to provide a bridge. It guides the readers through the practicalities of making crosses, isolating variants, mapping genes, constructing specific genotypes and analyzing mutations. No previous knowledge of fly genetics is assumed. The techniques used are illustrated, and practice problems and solutions are included to assist the reader. |

by: M. Ashburner publisher: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, published: 2008-06-23 ASIN: 0879698276 EAN: 9780879698270 sales rank: 1597915 This exceptional laboratory manual describes thirty-seven procedures most likely to be used in the next decade for molecular, biochemical, and cellular studies on Drosophila. They were selected after extensive consultation with the research community and rigorously edited for clarity, uniformity, and conciseness. The outstanding features of this protocol collection are: Scope: The methods included permit investigation of chromosomes, cell biology, molecular biology, genomes, biochemistry, and development. Depth: Each protocol includes the basic information needed by novices, with sufficient detail to be valuable to experienced investigators. Format: Each method is carefully introduced and illustrated with figures, tables, illustrations, and examples of the data obtainable. Added value: The books appendices include key aspects of Drosophila biology, essential solutions, buffers, and recipes. An evolution of Michael Ashburners 1989 classic Drosophila: A Laboratory Manual, this book is an essential addition to the personal library of Drosophila investigators and an incomparable resource for other research groups with goals likely to require fly-based technical approaches. |

publisher: Nova Science Pub Inc, published: 2012-03-30 ASIN: 1614702799 EAN: 9781614702795 sales rank: 11133704 Drosophila melanogaster is a species of Diptera, or the order of flies, in the family Drosophilidae. This species is one of the most commonly used model organisms in biology, including studies in genetics, physiology, microbial pathogenesis and life history evolution because they are easy to take care of, breed quickly and lay many eggs. In this book, the authors present current research in the study of drosophila melanogaster including: the gametogenesis, embryonic and post-embryonic development of drosophila melanogaster; the significance of stellate genes in drosophila melanogaster; the evolution of drosophila melanogaster retroviruses and the morphogenesis of drosophila melanogaster macrochaetes. |

publisher: Humana Press, published: 2003-11-04 ASIN: 1588290506 EAN: 9781588290502 sales rank: 2926899 Leading drosophilists describe in step-by-step detail all the essential techniques for studying Drosophila chromosomes and suggest new avenues for scientific exploration. The chapters emphasize specimen preparation (from dissection to mounting) and cover both polytene and mitotic/meiotic chromosomes in depth. Each fully tested and readily reproducible protocol offers a background introduction, equipment and reagent lists, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding pitfalls. A cutting-edge FISH and immunolocalization technique will be important for discovering how DNA sequence influences higher-order chromosome architecture and ultimately gene expression. |
