As functional genomics has become one of the major focuses in molecular biology, the need for more sophisticated tools to assist in the identification of the functionality of undefined genes and the correlation of DNA variants with a particular phenotype has increased greatly. I…
"Turn to What's Wrong With My Mouse? to discover the wealth of mouse behavioral tasks and to get the guidance you need to select the best methods and necessary controls. Chapters are organized by behavioral domain, including measurements of general health, motor functions, senso…
This new edition of Whats Wrong With My Mouse? continues to provide the most thorough overview of mutant mouse technology and a readable introduction to the field of behavioural neuroscience as applied to behavioural phenotyping of transgenic and knockout mice.
How does a researcher run behavioral assays to find out what's wrong with a mouse? This book answers that question and many more, including what tests are available to discover aberrant behavioral phenotype. Chapters are organized by behavioral domain, including measurements of …

Plants are amazing organisms to study, some are important sources for pharmaceuticals, and others can help to elucidate molecular mechanisms required for a plant's development and its interactions with the biotic or abiotic environment. Functional genomics is vastly lagging behi…
Psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are known to be highly heritable. Despite decades of research, however, the genetic variations conferring susceptibility to these illnesses have yet to be identified. Such genetic variations most likely produce abnor…
The Flexible Phenotype attempts a true synthesis of physiology, behaviour, and ecology by developing an empirical argument that describes the intimate connections between phenotypes and their environments. It portrays an ecological angle to the rapidly growing extended synthesis…
