Bioinformatics In Aquaculture C

Bioinformatics in Aquaculture is the first book dedicated to this fast moving and increasingly vital area. As aquaculture continues consistently to be the fastest growing area of agriculture, so the amount of information generated in, e.g. genome research in aquaculture escalates. Thorough coverage on how to process, interpret and use these data, as provided by this new book, is now vital to an increasing number of scientists dedicated to research and application in this field.

Bioinformatics in Aquaculture is broadly divided into five major sections: bioinformatic analysis of genomic sequences, bioinformatic analysis of transcriptomic sequences, bioinformatic mining and genetic analysis of DNA markers, comparative genome analysis, bioinformatic resources, databases and genome browsers

With over 30 chapters, many written by internationally-respected contributors, and edited by one of the world’s leading experts in the area, Professor John (Zhanjiang) Liu, this exceptional book is a vital tool for all those working in molecular biology, biochemistry and genetics related to aquaculture, and computational and biological sciences. Libraries in all universities and research establishments where these subjects are studied and taught should have copies of this excellent publication in their collections.

Zhanjiang (John) Liu is currently the Associate Provost and Associate Vice President for Research at Auburn University, and a Professor in the School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences, and Program of Cell and Molecular Biosciences, Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama, USA.
