Encyclopaedia Of Mammalian Embryology

Using a method of aggregation of embryos from the Fl progenies of ddY X El and ddY XC57BL/6J, seven chimera mice were produced. These seven chimera mice manifested various distributions, of the white coat colour derived from the Fl progeny of ddY X El. it was found that the chimera mouse, which had a larger percent of the white coat colour, had a higher susceptibility to epileptic convulsion, the susceptibility having been proportional to the degree of the tissue mosaicism. The present title Mammalian Embryology provide! a definitive and comprehensive review of all aspects relating to genes in mammals. it discusses the intimate physiology of the endocrine system itself and describes the role of genes in the processes of nutrition, osmoregulation, colourchange, calcium metabolism and reproduction. Subject matter has been presented in a readable way emphasizing the differences between species from a functional aspects. This book has been written primarily for use as a textbook for students of higher studies. Contents: introduction; Reproduction in Mammals; Pregnancy in Mammals; Polarity of Hamster Embryos during Compaction; Mammal Anatomy; Genetic Analysis of Adenohypophysis Formation in Zebrafish; The Tissues and Organs of the Lymphatic System.
