Principles of Genetics
Author:D. Peter Snustad, Michael J. Simmons
Edition:7th Edition
Genetic principles are explored from classical inheritance to modern molecular biology, explaining how traits are transmitted, expressed, and modified across generations. It examines DNA structure and function, gene expression, mutation, and genomics while connecting these concepts to evolution, population genetics, and the genetic basis of complex traits and diseases.
