BIOLOGY OF THE THREE-SPINED STICKLEBACK

by Sara Ostlund-Nilsson; Ian Mayer; Felicity Anne Huntingford; et al

Published by CRC Press. 1st. 2007

Slightly better than very good condition. Highlighting the growing importance of the sticklebacks as a model species in emerging fields such as molecular genetics, genomics, and environmental toxicology, this book examines data from researchers who use studies of the stickleback to address a wide range of biological issues. Edited by Ostlund-Nilsson, Mayer, and Huntingford. Pictorial glazed boards. B/w charts. 392 pages including index.

Top & tail of spine lightly bumped. Minor mark to vertical edge of text block. Hinge next to title page pulled but binding is tight. Contents clean. A lovely copy.
