    • Extended chapter on agriculture including new material on glyphosate resistant plants
    • New section on the uses of gene cloning and PCR in archaeology
    • Coverage of ethical concerns relating to pharming, gene therapy and GM crops


    Gene Cloning and DNA Analysis remains an essential introductory text to a wide range of biological sciences students; including genetics and genomics, molecular biology, biochemistry, immunology and applied biology. It is also a perfect introductory text for any professional needing to learn the basics of the subject.
