Yeast

Finally, a stand-alone, all-inclusive textbook on yeast biology.Based on the feedback resulting from his highly successful monograph, Horst Feldmann has totally rewritten the contents to produce a comprehensive, student-friendly textbook on the topic. The scope has been widened, with more than double the content so as to include all aspects of yeast biology, from molecular genetics via cell biology right up to biotechnology applications. The cell and molecular biology sections have been vastly expanded, while information on other yeast species and aspects on yeast evolution have been added, with contributions from renowned authors. Naturally, the illustrations are in full color throughout, and the book is backed by a complimentary website: www.wiley-vch.de/home/yeast The resulting textbook caters to the needs of an increasing number of students in biomedical research, cell and molecular biology, microbiology and biotechnology who end up using yeast as an important toolor model organism.
