Natural Hybridization and Evolution
This study draws on data from numerous sources that support the paradigm of natural hybridization as an important evolutionary process. The review of these data results in a challenge to the framework used by many evolutionary biologists, which sees the process of natural hybridization as maladaptive because it represents a violation of divergent evolution. In contrast, this book presents evidence of a significant role for natural hybridization in furthering adaptive evolution and evolutionary diversification in both plants and animals.
The Beginnings of Plant Hybridization
A review of speculation on plant hybridization from classical times up to the early eighteenth century, reprinting the work of twenty-nine plant hybridizers who preceded Koelreuter.
Hybridization of Somatic Cells
Since its discovery in I960, the hybridization of somatic cells has evolved from a biological curiosity into an analytical method that today underlies nearly all investigations of the genetic aspects of various biological phenomena. As an eyewitness to this development from its inception forward, Boris Ephrussi here relates the history of somatic hybridization and the formation of its methodology, lie follows with a discussion of the characteristics and properties of the resultant hybrid cells. Together, these topics comprise an authoritative introduction to the principles of the technique. Dr. Ephrussi proceeds to an examination in greater detail of three specific areas of biological resear...
Telenothians
Telenothians: An Inquiry into the Limits of Hybridization is a collection of information bearing on a single primary question: How different can two organisms be if they are to mate and produce offspring together? The focus is on animals belonging to Phylum Vertebrata (animals with a backbone). Gleaned from a wide array of sources, ancient and modern, the evidence is drawn from medical reports, scientific journals, newspapers, magazines, viral videos and dusty tomes. Between the two covers of this book, the impossible becomes fact.
In Situ Hybridization
In situ hybridization is used to reveal the location of specific nucleic acids sequences on chromosomes or in tissues. Visualization of the location of genes on chromosomes or of specific mRNAs or viruses in tissues is crucial for understanding the organization, regulation, and function of genes. It is a therefore a core technique in all areas of biomedical research. In Situ Hybridization: A Practical Approach 2/e is the second edition of one of the most successful Practical Approach books, published in 1992. Since the first edition was published, a number of important technical advances have been made. The new edition has been thoroughly updated to contain protocols detailing the major tech...
Nucleic Acid Hybridization
First published in 1998. This book is targeted at the beginner who has little or no knowledge of the principles or practice of hybridization. This text concentrates on solution and filter hybridization with a final chapter on current developments which includes DNA chips and advances in probe design.
Interspecific Hybridization of Esocids
Extension of the range of most of the esocid species has posed a problem of interspecific hybridization which could be harmful to indigenous pike species. In this paper literature is reviewd and the success of reciprocal crosses is recorded, including drawings and photographs showing the development of progeny. Fertility of some F1 hybrids was also investigated since this tow would reflect on the biological relationship of the species. It appears that even though many species can be artificially hybridized, isolating mechanisms may prevent or retard hybridization under natural conditions.
