Essentials of Genetics
Author:William Klug, Michael Cummings, Charlotte Spencer, Michael Palladino, Darrell Killian
Edition:10th Edition
Core principles of heredity are developed through both classical and molecular approaches, linking inheritance patterns with DNA structure and gene expression. It explores mutation, genetic variation, and population dynamics while emphasizing how genetic mechanisms influence development, disease, and evolution.
