Description
Model systems, model organisms -- Morgan's progeny -- Neurospora -- Aspergillus -- Yeast -- Leaving the fungi -- Escherichia coli -- The T bacteriophages -- Temperate phages and transduction -- DNA -- Prokaryotes take center stage -- Prokaryotes : later contributions -- Cytoplasmic inheritance : the ciliates -- Organelle genetics : yeast and chlamydomonas -- Yeast becomes a supermodel -- The filamentous fungi : eclipse and renewal -- The role of biochemistry -- Genomics -- The age of model organisms
Explains the role of simple biological model systems in the growth of molecular biology. This book presents the history of molecular biology, tracing the work in bacteriophages in E coli, the role of other prokaryotic systems, the protozoan and algal models, and the move into eukaryotes with the fungal systems - Neurospora, Aspergillus and yeast.
