Genetics in Practice (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | F B Hutt | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Genetics in Practice was originally published as the final chapter in Prof. Frederick B. Hutt's monumental Genetics of the Fowl, covering everything then known about chicken breeding and genetics. It amounts to a book within a book, serving as the punchline for which the preceding 499 pages were the setup.

Now published as a standalone book for the first time by Norton Creek Press, it is a gold mine of practical, proven advice to chicken breeders: how to think about breeding projects, which methods to use for which goals, the limitations of different strategies, and the fundamentals of linebreeding, outcrossing, grading, and much more, including an extensive glossary of breeding and genetic terms.

Frederick Bruce Hutt's career in scientific writing began at age eight. He later became the youngest president of the Poultry Science Association. He researched, taught, and wrote extensively. He published more than 250 papers and articles, some intended for audiences of farmers and poultry hobbyists and others intended for researchers and geneticists. His clear, well-organized style won him a warm welcome with all audiences.
