When a forensic scientist analyzes crime scene DNA, or a microbiologist isolates a specific gene to develop a new vaccine, they rely on a technique called gel electrophoresis.
Este libro representa el esfuerzo colectivo del Centro Universitario de Ciencias Biologicas y Agropecuarias (CUCBA) para impulsar el avance y la difusion de las ciencias biologicas y biomedicas en el Occidente de Mexico.
Este libro presenta de manera concisa los conceptos de la biotecnologia aplicada al sector agropecuario y minero, dos de los renglones mas importantes de Colombia, y permite comprender los alcances y perspectivas de esta ciencia, para lograr una mayor competitividad en estos sectores.
Diversidad genetica de las heliconias y su aplicacion en fitorremediacion, identificacion varietal y mercadeo tiene un hilo conductor (el estudio de la diversidad genetica y la expresion fenotipica) y un proposito unificador (aportar al mercado de las flores tropicales y estrategias de descontaminacion de metales pesados).
La autora narra los principales hitos historicos en el desarrollo de algunas de las tecnologias de la edicion genetica, donde resalta sus caracteristicas principales, integrando representaciones graficas que abarcan los conceptos de una manera clara.
